One of the oldest wooden-framed "greenhouses" on the West Coast, it was badly damaged during the Loma Prieta Quake of '89. Zeeshan Haider(friend and fellow dancing buddy) was one of the Project Managers during the reconstruction. Luckily, it's only a few minutes from home base and a gorgeous day out. The light coming through the stained glass made for several nice effects. Conservatory of Flowers, Golden Gate Park, San Francisco.<p><a href="http://mvgals.net/gallery/discoboy_FreeDayAtConservatory-040505/1"><img src="http://mvgals.net/albums/discoboy_FreeDayAtConservatory-040505/IMG_4658.thumb.jpg" width="113" height="150" border=0 vspace=2 hspace=0 align=top border="0" alt="This little tyke was playing so badly I had to get a shot of him.
