San Fran. What a beautiful city.

San Francisco is quite a beautiful city. We just wanted to see the Golden Gate Bridge and "The Painted Ladies". As we were at the bridge we saw tour buses rolling around. So we hopped on and took a 2 hour tour around all the hot spots. Very cool. They say rent for a 1 bedroom apartment is $1600.00 a month and up!!!!
 
 
 
Alcatraz!

                                                                  South on the 101.
We stayed in Crescent City, CA. Beautiful beaches. Drove thru the Redwoods. HUGE HUGE trees! Then on to San Francisco! Wasn't in the plans, but, Hey! We're on vacation. A road trip isn't a road trip if you decide to go 4 hours outta the way! Love it!!!

Old Things.....


 There are allot of old things on the ranch. Here are just a few. They even look and feel old in sepia.

The old one room school house.



The old swing set behind the parents house.
An old Ford pick up.
Another old Ford pick up.
Old wagon with the wooden spokes.
And last but not least. "The old guy" as he's affectionately known around here.
