Northern California Feb 2006

We went to Chico, CA for my Brothers wedding on 02/28/2006. After the wedding we headed to Santa Cruz, CA for the first stop of our extended weekend and the follow few shots were in Big Basin State Park on our way.






























Redwoods are AMAZINGLY HUGE.











































































Welcome to Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. It was exactly the same as I remember it so many years ago.


















I think this was an abandonedmilitary base I believe near Half Moon Bay, CA. There were no gates or anything preventing access to just about anywhere you wanted to go, it was like everyone decided to get up and leave at the same time.




























Of course every scary movie I had ever seen came to mind all at the same time so we didn't venture in too far




























Half Moon Bay, CA. on the beach there were dozens of these little sculptors huts.


















Besides this being a light house between Half Moon Bay and San Francisco in a city called Montara, CA this is also a very cute Hostel with some incredible views.

San Francisco, CA. - How I miss you... Sometimes.






























All the years I lived just outside of San Francisco I STILL have never been on a Cable Car.


















Alcatraz Island and yes the streets really are that steep.
