These first few pics are from the Ferry Plaza Farmers Market.
After eating a juicy white peach and sampling some smokey Gouda cheese I proceeded to wander around the city for the rest of the afternoon. Isn't San Francisco a lovely city?
Later we went to the County Fair. Don't ask me what county, I simply can't remember. This is where I had my first funnel cake...first and last, I'm afraid. It was so good and yet oh so bad for me, I could feel the pounds come on with each bite.
Sunday afternoons are perfect for strolls around the Stanford campus (done it twice already).
Went to the symphony twice. Once with Michelle (below) and the second time with Heather Hammond (in the ward) to see/hear Michelle sing with the choir. Great performance team! And just look at the city lights glowing behind us. Sigh.
Below is the view from "The Dish." It's a 3.5 mile circle trail that Stanford built on some of its land. It just happens to have some satellite dishes up there and "The Dish" sounds so much better than "The Dishes." It's a great trail to walk/run/survive. It's hilly and quite the workout but just check out that view!
Oakland temple. Always a great escape when I can get to the temple. The last trip included a detour to Fenton's creamery. YUM! I highly recommend the pistachio ice cream next time you're in town. I later learned that this is the place that inspired the ice cream shop at the end of UP. Made me love it even more (the ice cream shop AND the movie).
Yet another trip to San Fran. This time I visited the Museum of Modern Art (below) to the Stein collection...a wonderful sampling of Picasso, Matisse and others.
And the "Painted Ladies." Can anyone else hear the Full House song running through their head?
I'm not sure why but I love cemeteries. Military cemeteries even more so. Just something very peaceful and spiritual about them.
Went to Half Moon Bay the next weekend. It was a bit cloudy but I had a wonderful time wandering in and out of shops.
Just last night was LDS night at the Giants. Here are three of the four roommates--we missed you Shelly! We ate hot dogs (of course) and had a fantastic time.
