Headed Out To San Francisco, For A Labor Day Weekend Show

Heading out for nine days to check out the coolest city in the US.
Somehow we blew through check-in by going to the TSA Pre check-in.
We took MARTA down to the airport and left the car at my office. Paul Amoruso would be proud.


Flight out on Delta

We ate dinner at the In and Out burger at Fisherman's Wharf. Good burger and fries, especially if you're super hungry. 

Walked up to the top of the sightseeing spot near the Fisherman's Wharf. Tam and I made it half way, the kids made it to the top and then walked down to meet us. Crazy.

While we waited for the Ferry to take us to Alcatraz we played with the camera for a bit. Rob and I were cracking up trying to take this picture.

Alcatraz on the port side. 

The Fisherman's Wharf looking out to the Golden Gate Bridge.

While we walked downtown I came across a fun shot of a hotel. All the rooms have bay windows.

We surprised the kids and rented a Tesla Model X 90D. Great car for getting a group and luggage around. Every stop we had people looking at the car and checking out the doors. This picture was taken near Muir Woods. 

The Tesla Model X 90D was perfect when you turned on the autopilot. We only had a few times we felt like we were going to run off the road. If the speed limit is 55 MPH and a curve shows you need to slow to 25 MPH we would continue on at 55 MPH and try and take the turn. I was all in but everyone else wanted to live a little longer. 

Having fun with the Tesla Easter Egg. 


Photos from the Hearst Castle. Wow what an amazing place. 


Best guide at the Hearst Castle. 

Pulled into the Tesla Supercharger with only 12 miles on the car. We cut it close three times while we had the Tesla. We put 1,000 miles on the car in 7 days and did not spend a penny for power. All provided by Tesla. Thank you Elon Musk.

Blowing My Mind

Items that I have collected,  in no particular order,  that  BLOW MY MIND. I have been collecting and writing down information that blows my mind. Here is a list, in no particular order, of information that I have picked up shortly after I was born in 1958. It is crazy how much information that has changed or is changing as I grow older. The Universe In no particular order: The universe was created 13.8 billion years ago. Big Bang - Only two elements were formed one million of a millionth of a millionth of a second after the big bang. Because of heat after the big bang these two elements were created. 1. 75% hydrogen  2. 25% helium 400 million years after the big bang, the stars are formed under extreme heat. The stars start to fail and explode which created carbon, oxygen, iron, nitrogen cooked and then exploded. E=MC² shows that Energy and Mass are interchangeable which is how energy turned into elements or mass. The earth is 4.543 billion years old. Life on ea...

Vancouver then Disney Cruise to Alaska

Capilano Suspension Bridge and Park Purchased  by George MacKay in 1889, the 6,000 acres of forest had a beautiful Capilano river flowing right through the middle of the property. George and his team pulled ropes across the river and erected a suspension bridge. Tam is standing on the Cliffwalk which is 30 stories above the river.  I am on the Cliffwalk and removed the people in the photo with Google Photos Edit application.    Raptors are brought in to show and educate the visitors. A lady sat with this bird on her glove speaking with anyone that would listen. Very cool.  Tam standing on the porch of a 150 year old house cut from logs in the area.  Tam walking over the suspension bridge. The bridge is 450 feet (137 meters) long and moves a lot.  Stanley Park Great place to bike ride and walk along the sea wall. Stanley Park is almost 1,000 acers (400 hectares) in downtown Vancouve...
