Who knew?

I did; no, I suspected. I didn't know. I just didn't know.

I had the opportunity to go out to San Francisco for work and turned 4 days of work into a 10 day fun trip. I had such a great time soaking up the land.

San Fran, loved it!
Suburbia on the east side of the bay, looked like Ireland or New Zealand!
Muir Woods, reminded me of Emily Leonard.
Sausalito, may look like nowhere else I've been.
Sonoma, cute houses. Lovely and inviting!
Napa, more cute houses...and lots of churches.
Wine country in gen'l, WOW! Rich blue skies, billowy clouds, the greenest greens!
Carmel, b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l.!!! Everything about it. Adorable!
Monterey, I saw a rainbow over the ocean!
Yosemite...greeted me with a last minute snow storm, and I am thankful!

I had a great time snapping pictures and taking it all in. There is just so much to do. I will go back to really explore what I was lucky enough to see.

If you know, you're lucky.
If you don't, then you should change that!
Southwest flies into San Fran, San Jose and Oakland. Nowadays, you can find an affordable car and hotel. And, I think it's worth every penny.
