Hello friends! My name is Tim Welsh. I’m the owner and operator of Welsh Income Tax Service in Hayward, California. When I was fifteen, I fell in love with San Francisco. It wasn’t a first in the family; my mother at seventeen had traveled by train from North Dakota, where I was later born, to see the Treasure Island World’s Fair, and fell in love with “The City” long before I did. You can see pictures from her trip in the November 19th, 2014 ‘Summer of 1939’ postings. It’s been a love affair that’s never broken my heart. Here, with pictures from books, movies, the internet, and personal collections, I’ve had a chance to share my affection for San Francisco with comparison and location pictures that I’ve taken. I’ve had help from family and friends, and even my dog ‘Danny’ who sniffed out the trail of Buffalo Bill at Ocean Beach on a November 15, 2014 post. My blog is for non commercial and non profit purposes only, and it’s always a lot of fun to work on. Many of the pictures from November, 2014 to November 2015 are thumbnail images. Pictures from posts after that can be enlarged by viewing the image. I hope you enjoy the posts, and please feel free to follow my blog, or make suggestions, comments or corrections if you like.

Candlestick Park on the left, and AT&T Park on the right. Don’t know who the child on the left is, but the “forever a child at heart” on the right is pretty special to me! (Thumbnail image)

Ten to one the name of that little tyke with the cap over his ears in front of the Ferry Building was “Scooter” or “Biff”. (Thumbnail image)

Those must have been really small kids at the Conservatory in Golden Gate Park! Or else, they were Victorian voodoo dolls! (Thumbnail image)

june1987 This one is a personal then and now of me with my nieces taken in June of 1987. That was the 50th Anniversary candle they painted on the cement Island of the Bay Bridge the previous November, and hadn’t, entirely removed yet.
