Brown-bagging on the Steps
“The Steps” are a place in Sonora (the City) that Anne, Shea, Emo and Avery would hang out after the bars had closed at 2am, offering a picturesque view of late night Sonora, and the rolling hills of Tuolumne County.
Alas, trying to do the same in your late-30s/early-40s just isn’t the same. First off, there’s NOOO WAY any of them could stay awake after 11pm, let alone 2am. Also Avery isn’t with them (I wonder where he went). Still, it’s worth revisiting again every now and then, just as a way to reconnect with your old memories.

This is based on the real life Steps my friends and I used to hang out at in San Francisco, just a few blocks off Broadway Ave. I’m sure everyone else has their own “The Steps”, as in the place that they and their friends would go to and enjoy the view while sipping on the last of their drinks as a way to cap off the night. Well, maybe give it a visit again, if it’s still there of course.
I should go out next weekend. Since moving to Sacramento from San Francisco, I haven’t even seen any of Sac’s night scene. I wonder if I could bring someone along.
