Quiet week

Well it's been pretty quiet here the last couple of weeks. This last weekend I spent Saturday in San Francisco with a couple of friends from Madison. I managed to get a nice sunburn on my face since I once again forgot to use sunblock. I also learned that it's a long walk from the piers to Lumbard Street, those hills in San Francisco are a pain to walk up.

I spent Sunday in Livermore wine tasting, and it was a lot of fun. Unlike trendy Nappa/Sonoma Livermore has mostly free tastings and some very good wine for reasonable prices. Only one place was charging $25+ for a bottle and their wine wasn't even that good. I spent more than I should have buying wine. Ahh well I'll just have to drink it sometime. The trick now is to get it back to MN/WI without it going bad.

That's it for now. I'll try and post a few pics of San Francisco and my earlier crater trip when I have time.
