Vivian A. Brown and Marian B. Brown have been San Francisco's unofficial mascots for four decades.
We bumped into them on Powell Street last night. When Heather tried to take a candid, they said, "No, sweetie, let's do this right." and guided us to the hotel steps for a "proper photo."
They moved here in 1970 and have no plans to ever leave. I can relate to that.
