I rely on the 38 to Ocean Beach daily to take my son to school and to pick him up. Now we’ll have to wait forever to transfer to the 18 which runs every 20 min on a good day. Maybe not a big deal in the grand scheme of life’s miseries, but on a rainy windy day like today, it will really suck!

A great part about living in the Richmond off Geary Blvd. is that my main Muni line is the 38 and 38L which will be receiving additional buses and pickup times. Yes, they did eliminate the 38 to Ocean Beach, but this is freaking sweet because now I don’t have to worry in a drunken stupor that I may have gotten on the wrong bus and therefore have to walk up an unforgiving hill. Plus the 38L has been expanded to operate to Downtown until 7:50 p.m. and from Downtown until 8:55 p.m. Fortunately for me and my other Geary Blvd. neighbors there are no Muni deaths worth crying over. But, we do feel bad for everyone else….we have souls!!

I look forward to actually being able to use some of those pimp-daddy brand new buses MUNI used to use on the 74X-Culture line.

Someday, when waiting for the 31 with my young son, I’ll wax nostalgic for the time when the 38 went all the way to Ocean Beach. He’ll look up at me, roll his eyes, and say, “Whatever, dad.”

89 Laguna Honda? Visitors of the residents of LHH, take the 44 or 52 & get off near Idora St. & walk towards the back parking lot near the 5th floor entrance.

I’ve seen it around the Mission. Never ridden it, but just might try to sneak a few in before she calls it a run.

Right, then my ride on the 16BX will be extremely crowded by the time it reaches Sunset Blvd.

Ah, that figures. Too bad. It’s a long, cold hike down the hill from Geary to Balboa when you ride home after midnight, and the 31 Balboa just doesn’t run often enough. I’m always happy when the bus makes that turn at 33rd Avenue.
And there’s just no way in hell I’m going to get off and wait for an 18 bus that will run– how often? Not often enough, I’m sure.

Actually, Sara, if my reading is right, they are getting rid of that version of the 38. Go here and scroll down to the second row in the column, under “Eliminate Route Segment.” Sorry!
