Being in San Francisco, and at Lance’s apartment carried with it the air of the familiar, mixed with new adventure. Not our first time in San Fran, but this time it’s different and I think it has something to do with having no address at the moment. Where we are is where we are. I [...]
Down the Coast
Day after the wedding and we head down the coast to San Francisco. What scenery. I have an uncle on my father’s side whom I have never met and he lives about two or three hours to the north. It would be interesting to head up there, but today known friends and family are in [...]

Thanks for the dairy though [...]

We’re Off!
The crew leaves NYC and begins a journey to the west coast.
