Gorgeous scenery-and I like that photo of you & Steve.

The photo of Steve and I was snapped by my buddy Jim Bernstein who I also got to meet on this trip. It was a fantastic time!

I'm delighted you got to meet so many people and enjoy the sights! WHo was at the dinner?

Oh - I guess I left out actual names! My pal Jim G. (with SFGMC) and his BF Joe, Tommy and Morgan. Steve (Rootbeer1), His pal Tony. Steve and Jason (Putzmeister and Foggbear), Paul Perrotta, my buddy Jeff, and my buddy Jim B and his partners Dan and Jay. I feel like I am leaving someone out...

Isn't it just the BEST city!

I love it so much there, and can't wait to go back!

It is pretty danged wonderful, but I think for the sheer type of wilderness close by I still prefer Seattle. Still, SF has much better transit. Most places in the city are accessible via bus, trolley or train. Either place would be a HUGE step up from living in Texas...

So I'm gathering that once the studies are completed, and you gain your qualifications, then a new job with a move to one of those places will be on the cards? :-)

You bet your sweet bippy! I hope to be living somewhere along the West Coast once things are said and done, though I may have to work here locally in the field a bit prior to making that jump...

OMG! Marin County has a spectacular complex designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. I've always wanted to see it, but never got the chance - yet. In a prior job, I had to go to San Fancisco about once a month, but got to do almost no sightseeing. Drat.

I had no idea there either. Damn that is two places I have been and missed his work! Well, add it to the list of things to see next time...

i love Point Reyes. You are so right, there is so much beauty in such a short distance from San Francisco.

erstexman January 16 2013, 23:11:45 UTC

We only barely got into Point Reyes, hitting the visitor center and earthquake walk. Next time there I actually want to see the point...
