In the Bay Area
The New Era went on a trip to the Bay Area with Cheryl Hicks and Christy Keeney to visit Chery's brother
Craig Moorhead, who lives in the area. Craig took them to "all the best places in San Francisco" - Fisher-
man's Warf Pier 39 where they ate at Bubba Gump's, Lombard Street and Chinatown. They walked halfway
across the Golden Gate Bridge and experienced what was. for Cheryl and Christy, their very first cable car
ride. "It was a great mother-daughter road trip," said Christy, at right in this photo with the Golden Gate
Bridge in the background.
