San Francisco Part Uno

Our weekend in a nutshell: 2 animal style trips to In & Out, the secret bed, too many Jelly Bellys, 1087 songs on shuffle and a bag of cds, bunhead, naps, 2 10 1/2 hour drives, the Oakland Temple, a much needed visit to H&M, $12 in tolls, one very energetically sweet niece, The My Little Pony Memory Game, Clifford and Arthur, Amoeba Music, a John Vanderslice sighting, "Why are you such a big man?," necklaces, the acres of salt flats, funky tree art, metallic bras and mesh shirts, the Hell's Kitchen season finale, the crookedest street in the world, sourdough pizza and bread, 15 minutes on a boat, cell block D and Broadway, standing in "the hole" in Alcatraz, wind and jackets, driving on hills at a 60* vertical, a 20 minute detour to Berkley, Elko and Lovelock "Lock your Love Away," Trader Joe's Schoolhouse Alphabet Cookies, magnetic princess clothing, Ultimate Dance Party 1997, Lodi, and lots of fun with family.
