151 - Anniversary

Guess where we went for our 16 year Anniversary this last weekend? After Napa (which is beautiful) we went along Highway 1 (which is also beautiful) and through San Fransisco. What a great weekend.

135 - Surf

Just look at the surf here. Such a beautiful sight along highway 1 in California.

163 - Temperature

This is an "Old Faithful Geiser" in Calistoga, CA. With only 3 in the entire world I knew I wanted to see it. It shoots up about every 40 minutes, because it's predictable, that is was makes it an "Old Faithful". This one reaches a very hot temperature of 350 degrees and then blows water into the air to cool itself down. It only lasts for about 5 minutes.

185 - Traffic

Here is traffic located in downtown San Fransisco. As you can see the marine layer was moving in.

167 - Model

The original creator, created this model of his home town. Each house, building and fences were placed exactly where they were in the real home town. It took many years and lots of artists to create, but was finally finished before he died in the 80's. It's big and wonderful to look at. What a true model of one owns town.

157 - Carriage

Here is a great carriage found inside the museum.

94 - Post Box

Here is a wall of post office boxes.

126 - Tools

Look at all these different tools once used in kitchens. Depending on your age you might say you have used some. Me? Just seen most in museums.

165 - Quilt

This quilt is made of silk and hand done. Not something that is done much of anymore. It was located in a museum along our weekend trip.

312 - Graffiti

This is inside the World War II military bunker. So sad that someone has to do this to property that does not belong to them.

73 - History

This photo is of an old World War II military bunker. It was used to guard the San Fransisco Bay.

152 - Tattoo

I thought this was a neat tattoo as far as tattoo's go. As for myself, I'm not into tattoo's and even told my friend he was stupid for getting one. His is of a football team the "Vikings," how stupid is that... what if the team gets sold and moves?

247 - Tradition

It's officially a "Tradition" now. My oldest daughter had her 8th birthday and her first doll cake. My 3rd now that I have made. I had these cakes when I was a child and now all of my girls have had one also. Even the cake pan was passed on to me to use.
