San Francisco
So I was away for vacation for 10 days. Like I said previously, vacation is the best thing in the world. I highly recommend everyone taking one. After planning and planning where to go, my girlfriend and I chose (Ok mostly my girlfriend but I had input too) to fly out west and then drive from location to location. We figure start in San Fran then drive to Lake Tahoe, then to Mammouth, then to Las Vegas for her birthday and I could gamble and make back most of the money I spent on the trip (rrriiiiggghhhtttt). Besides short road trip together how sweet right? (Hey on a map they look close to each other.) After all was said and done it was a great trip. I got some flicks, exercise, ideas for art and good food.

We stayed at Orchard Garden Hotel. It’s a "green" hotel. SMALL rooms but we didn’t stay in often. (Hopefully that helped to offset some of the carbon emissions for the trip but I doubt it.) Positioned close to
Some friends of mine moved out there last year and I have not had a chance to speak with them in awhile and so seeing them was great. Hopefully, it also gave them something to do while they are out there. Being brand new to that coast they brought my girlfriend and I to see the sights we could not see by foot. We traveled to the other side of the

We only spent a couple days there before we drove out but I am happy I got to have my chowder from Fisherman’s Wharf, my burger from In and Out (did you know they have a “hidden” menu? I didn’t until I got to Vegas) and a grilled fish taco (I am not going back to ground beef ever). All this "fast food" and still I walked more than I ever would have back home. Having my girlfriend with me probably got me doing more things than I ever would have done by myself. Looking back spending three days there instead on two would have been nice but it probably would have ruined the rest of the trip........to be continued.
