Spend some time in heaven on earth in Grace Cathedral, San Francisco. To my surprise, the American President FDR, plus other local San Francisco dignitaries, are portrayed in stained glass windows. If you're in the neighborhood, walk into this awe-inspiring space called Grace. If there is a heaven, Nob Hill is not a bad location.
