San Francisco's fairly empty lunch hour

            Today, I was in downtown SF for a meeting, and I grabbed my camera for some street pics during the lunch break. As soon as I stepped out of the building lobby, this was the scene that greeted me. 

We've heard a lot about SF's problems, especially recovering from the tech companies leaving downtown post-Covid. Based on my visit today, the streets and sidewalks were definitely less busy and vibrant than they used to be. 

It's still a great city, and it will return to its former glory.
