In San Francisco, they will sip champagne while listening to Tony Bennett (a royal favorite) croon where he left his heart and Mary Martin trill Getting to Know You (which she already does). They will also make a side trip to the Reagan ranch, near Santa Barbara, for barbecue ribs and riding-English-style for the Queen and hopalong Ron, western for Nancy. The Queen and Philip will help the Reagans celebrate their 31st...
