What is the riddle of the Sphinx

What creature goes on four legs in the morning, two at mid-day, and three in the evening?

Sphinx

Man, who crawls on all fours as a baby, walks on two feet as an adult, and uses a cane in old age.

    :D When did they move her to SF? I have asked that question more times than I care to remember and felt gleeful to tell the answer :D

    SF is on my visit-list in this lifetime for sure.
