Back from Monterey, San Francisco, Crescent City and Bandon Oregon...
I had the deep honor of officiating the wedding of my son's best buddy of the last 15 years and his amazing, beautiful bride. They are on their way across the country to Maryland for her residency as an OB/GYN Doc. Luke I'll call him, (since that's his name) has gone with me, my Best buddy and my son up into the Ross Lake area for a week at a time for a decade as well as a bunch of overnight backpacking trips. I think the world of this guy, calm, musically gifted, very strong and a steady hand when things get dicey. I was (and still am) blown away when he and his fiancee asked me a year ago if I'd come down to Monterey and wed them... I gave it a little thought and then said absolutely! He and my Son have summited Rainier, Mt. St. Helen's, Mt Adams and many many other lessor peaks. I don't worry (much) when they are out climbing together, they are both very capable and know when to say hold up, let's re-assess. Originally planned as a fly to SF, drive to Monterey do some sight seeing and return 7 days later, SeaTac started having issues, so it was Road Trip time!! Took 12 days, had a blast every day!

^Nice silhouettes, albeit a bit ominous with the baseball bat^ :)
SF meanderings I was impressed with the Alcatraz tour and Fort Point under the South end of the Golden Gate bridge, windy and down right cold up on top of the walls! There were wind surfers all over the place clear out to the main shipping channel under the GGB- braver than I by far! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654271450.JPG |
I worked at a restaurant at Ghirardelli Square in college. Long gone.
I had a few friends that lived in Cow Hollow and always enjoyed the area. Again, thanks for the memories😎 |
Sad day coming.
We brought in an old gelding ten years ago, former small time race horse, hunter jumper, schooling horse that was breaking down. The former owner makes her living with horses and it was either us or something less pleasant. He was "free". He was 25 then. My wife trail rode with him for a few years then he became a yard ornament...a great, wonderful yard ornament but he hasn't been ridden in five years. Some days we just let him out of his stall and he eats the grass around the farm. He never leaves. We all love him but his time is drawing near. He is now 35 and has trouble keeping weight, stumbles a bit more than he should. So, next week the vet comes and we'll figure out the inevitable. So, Batman, my wife and my daughter yesterday.

This was Memorial Day. I started the day on the golf coarse, but I forgot that there was a tournament going on and after 2.5 hours on the front nine I was done.
So I called up a buddy who just got a new to him boat hauled in from California, and we took it out for a test ride. The ride was good, and so was the whiskey. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1654454286.jpg |
