Dolores Park picnic (2025-05-31)

I (Mako) will be visiting San Francisco for one day only (!!!) on Saturday May 31, 2025 as a tack-on to a short work trip to Palo Alto. Since I don't have time to meet everybody I might like one-on-one, I've decided that I'm going to post up in the park for a picnic! Seth Schoen has suggested a location within the park. I'm sorry I can't stay longer. I'm teaching this quarter so it's pretty compressed!
Sadly, Mika can't make it this time. :(
- Where
- Dolores Park, "slightly south of the Miguel Hidalgo Statue" (Seth Schoen says this should be enough to help us meet and that it should be pretty accessible on transit).
- When
- 2pm-6:30pm. You can come for as long or as a little as you like! (update: I'm at 37.7592033, -122.4275714)
- Contact
- The best way to reach me is Signal at (+1) 206-409-7191 or mako.99 (other methods are described on my contact page)
- What should I bring?
- Just yourself is fine! Food and drinks to share sounds very nice. If you've got a tarp or picnic blanket, that would be great.
If you can only meet up earlier, reach out to Signal to let me know. I will probably go for a short bike ride within the city in the morning if I can find or borrow a large bike (I'm 6'3). I have dinner reservations at 8:30pm and a very early flight back to Seattle on Sunday so evening plans probably won't work.
If you can't make the meetup, come visit us in Extraordinary Least Squares in Seattle!
RSVP? (Optional)[edit]
If you know you are coming, maybe note it here? That I can roughly know who to expect and we can coordinate on bringing snacks.
- Mako; 2-6:30pm (I'm committed to being the whole time); I'll bring some beer and some bubbly water and maybe some (vegan) baked goods
- Caro; 2-?; will bring some edibles and NA beer. Available for a bike ride if you get a big bike.
- Kat + Greg: 2:30-???; will bring some homemade jam + crackers, some vegan cookies, probably some fruit seltzer.
