Ensley's Endeavors: San Francisco Weekend

This weekend we took off for San Francisco. It was an awesome experience. I have wanted to go there since we were here in 1999. Finally, in 2010 I made it. I would love for Jimmy to retire and move there. I love all the culture and history the city offers. We took a 5 hour tour where the guide took us all around and gave us "inside info" on the stops. It was so good to get into the places that we would normally never make it. Then we went to see the sunset at the Golden Gate Bridge. That was truly the coolest thing ever. I met two professional photographers there. It stroked my ego a little when I looked at both of our pics and I couldn't tell them apart. I was taking the same photos they were. So, they talked to me for about 1/2 hour about how to take pics and photography things. Pretty cool to talk to someone who actually was complimenting my photos. Then we went to Twin Peaks to see the city from above. It was freezing up there. OK, actually it was 52, but to this Southern CA girl it might as well have been -20. We headed back on Monday evening. As the trip came to a close, I realize that I am a lucky girl to get the opportunity to see things most people in my family never will. I definitely will put this trip as #1 on the list for now. It was great to finally make it up North. I loved the experience.
