Napa Valley, CA
There were grapes everywhere. If you didn't know Napa Valley is known for it's Winery's. It was so beautiful. I don't even know how to explain how beautiful it was. One night we had dinner at one if the Wineries (V. Satui's it is well known in the wine industry). While we were there they took us on a tour and showed us the Winery. I thought it was really interesting even though I don't drink. The last picture is of the barrels that the juice sits till it has fermented & softened (that's not even all of the barrels, we ate in one of the wine cellars that had probably double what is in the picture.
San Francisco - Muir Woods, CA On Thursday we were able to have a free day. So we (Clark, myself and the plant manager of the Logan Plant and his wife) headed towards the San Francisco area. We decided since I had never been across the Golden Gate Bridge we would do that and while we were there we went to Fisherman's Wharf for some shrimp cocktail and clam chowder and Ghirardelli Square for some chocolate. We also decided to go to the section of Redwoods (Muir Woods National Monument) that was near there. I had a great time. To see trees that have been there as long as these have it just blows me away. Some have been there since 900 AD and they are still standing. This year the Muir Woods is celebrating its Centennial Birthday. I didn't realize it was that old. It is a beautiful place to visit, there is such a peaceful feeling there. I'm glad we were able to visit San Francisco.

Your still having summer vacation!! Looks like a great trip. We did that very trip a year ago with our family. It was so fun. The only thing that would have made ours better, would have been to have gone with just Ira and I (no kids). Glad you had a fun time.
How FUN! Look like you had a great trip. It's so wonderful to have some quality time with your lover. Some day I hope to experience it again.
