Mini-Vacay in SF

Well, we got up early saturday morning and drove to the airport. Autumn, Vinnie, Nessa and Me boarded a plane to SFO! Whoo Hoo! To those of you that dont know, I was born in Bakersfield, my mother was born in San Francisco, but I had never been there. So, it was a little goal of mine. I actually had other ideas of going there, arm and arm with my beloved, watching the sun go down by the golden gate bridge. Instead, I met my dad and he gave us a quick tour. We paid 6 bucks to go over the bridge, take some pics and then head to Pier 39 to meet my brother, his wife Christi and their 3 year old son Carson. He's super cute. Poor little guy had a double ear infection (we found out the next day). We ate good chowder and went on the carousel. Carson went on the kiddie bungie jumper. After awhile we separated and dad drove us around the city. He took us to a park he used to do riot work at, the Golden Gate park, where hippies did love sit ins. Way back in the 60's!! LOL love ya dad! We cruised the Castro district, laughing at the funny signs and goofy looking people. We left going over the double decker Bay Bridge.

The next day, in Patterson where my brother lives, we went out to the Frank Raines Park, with their death trap park equipment, or huge slide and 3 swings to be more precise. Vinnie and Carson loved webbing the place up, and Nessa wanted to learn how to swing by herself soooo bad! LOL
