Weekend In - San Francisco


                  One of the best parts about visiting SF is simply drooling over the homes!


                                           Ate lunch at Scomas in Sausalito and this was the view!


                                         I had clam chowder in a sour dough bread bowl.


                                          I could watch the boats go by all-day. Very therapeutic.


                                                              Perfectly placed Seagull


                         Well....there you have it. I little look into a very low key SF weekend.

             It was a chilly Fall weekend and it could not have been any better. There is -
            something very special about The Bay Area. It's a magical place to visit and has
               so much natural beauty......everywhere you go. How was your weekend?

    How heavenly. Time spent by the ocean is always good for the soul. We are headed to the Central Coast this weekend. Time to decompress. Your little darling lady bug is so sweet. Cute just like her momma.

    I love Scoma's! When I lived in Sausalito I would go there at least once a week to have dinner on the water! Sausalito is just so beautiful. Glad you enjoyed the Bay!

    My sister used to live there and we got to go often! I need to go back with her some time soon. I would have ordered the same soup in a bread bowl. No one makes sourdough like they do in San Fran! What a wonderful break for you!

    I love San Francisco too and I'm going this coming weekend and will enjoy looking at those beautiful houses too and dreaming of living there. I will also be partaking in that famous sourdough clam chowder bread bowl. I'm drooling as I type this :)
