“Black Friday in our family involves taking our 1979 Cal 39 Grace out around the Bay,” wrote Greg vanDalen. “It was going to be the only ‘nice’ day of the weekend, so we put off decorating until some other day.”

“[This photo] was taken by our niece on Pier 39, where she manages the aquarium,” said vanDalen.
