Life Should Be A Beach All. The. Time!!!

Sand Pipers. One of my favorite living things at the beach. They are so funny...they run out with the waves and then run back in. Their little legs go so fast!
Nice beach scene

Cool tree that grew around a rock and then took the rock with it.This was my fortune for today. It totally came true!

We went for a fun walk on the beach and pretty much just had a chill kind of a day. I like vacation days where I can sleep in and then just do whatever I want to!

In the afternoon, Jane and I went to San Francisco one last time to partake of a San Francisco Giants game. It was a good game, even if my Dodgers didn't win!!!(I guess you have to root for the home team just like it says in "Take Me Out to the Ballgame.") I wish I would have not left to go to the bathroom during the fifth inning because that is when a lot of the action happened. Murphy's Law, right? It was still fun to go and be in another ballpark. After all, it is my goal to get to as many ballparks as I can in my lifetime. Good times!

Trolley Tuesday!!!

We headed to San Jose to see The Winchester House. It is a fascinating place that was built by a crazy lady, who thought she must confuse the spirits of those shot by Winchester rifles in order for them to not haunt her. The crazy lady was Sarah Winchester, the wife of the second heir to the Winchester gun fortune. Here are some pics of the house.


It is actually very pretty.



Door to nowhere.



Pretty gardens.



This place is huge!



Spider web windows.

You can read more about The Winchester Mansion HERE.

After the mansion we headed to San Francisco again so that Jane, Janette and Denise could go to Alcatraz. I have been twice in the past and even though I loved it, I thought I'd just stay behind and read and hang with the sea lions at Pier 39. I actually decided to explore the city and ride a cable car again. I was very glad I did. It was a blast.

Here are some pictures of my adventures:



I climbed this hill and many others.



Lombard Street






I want a red house.



Cable Car Museum.







Me "hanging out" and riding a cable car. Pure joy!

It was free cone day at Ben and Jerry's. I may have had two!

It was a very fun day.
