A bunch of random things pinging around my brain from vacation:
- There are a lot of rich people in San Francisco. Saw a guy fiddling around with his Bentley in a parking lot in Tiburon.
- Everyone in San Francisco owns a dog...and most of them are the precious kind that live in apartments with prissy people.
- People are more environmentally conscious in California. Many containers, in addition to simply soda/beer cans, are redeemable for deposits. And, all public buildings have signs posted in them warning of carcinogens present in them (not sure how good that makes a person feel...but it was interesting to note).
- I swear there is nowhere else on earth that smells better than Sonoma, California.
- On the other hand, there is nowhere else on earth that is tackier than Fisherman's Wharf.
- JetBlue Airlines is fabulous. The seats offer so much legroom, you could actually cross your legs without injuring yourself or anyone nearby.
- I think I could eat get used to eating avocado on a more regular basis.

Coolness/ I am glad you got to enjoy the SF goodness. I have been to most of the places in your pictures, and in my next life, when I am rich, I might live in the area.
California would be heaven if it wheren't for all the Californians.
Cathy, what I want to know is why was I not invited to go on this trip? I am a harried mother of two kids plus one dog and four cats, and one husband and I could have at least carried your bags or fluffed your pillows or something. Next time you go somewhere cool, I think I should at least get a T-shirt.
HUGS!
Really great pics, by the way, Cath.
I just finished "The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill" by Mark Bittner, and I am jonesing to get to SF so I can see the parrots! In case you haven't heard, I have become a VERY INVOLVED birder and to see wild parrots just wheeling around a city would make my day. Did you see any?
I did see the book about the wild parrots at "City Lights" and almost bought it. Was it a good read? (Unfortunately, we didn't see any parrots, but it would have been way cool.)
