pics--part the third
We started off at the San Francisco Brewing Co. We had been trying to meet up with a couple who were friends of Lu's. They were apparently VERY tempted by all the bars between us and them, but they finally made it. When they got to the bar, they were very happy. :)
We enjoyed a couple of pitchers of beer then headed back to the hotel to change clothes and prepare for the evening ahead. First stop: Haight-Ashbury and a little Caribbean restaurant called Cha Cha Cha. OMG. The food and Sangria were phenomenal.
Haight-Ashbury was dead that night. It was really strange. It wasn't even that late...but nothing was going on. No stores were opened. No vendors were out. No bands were playing. Nada. So we decided to catch a cab--and that's where the adventure began...
Stay tuned. :)

san francisco photos, part the first!!!
On Saturday, we drove into the city. Take a look at the fog over the city as we near San Francisco.
Isn't the architecture beautiful? That was the thing I enjoyed the most...the character of the city.
We had lunch at the House of Nanking which was fantastic, then we walked around the corner to China Town.
You'll see a picture of Grant Avenue. Had to take the picture in honor of my wee Scottish lad.
After China Town, we wandered past historical City Lights Books.
The newest fad--color-coordinated scootering.
More to come...

i should be spanked...
And sadly enough, I'm not about to really blog now because The Fishdog and I are headed to Little Rock for his 20 year high school reunion.
I should be spanked twice...
Speaking of spanking...
While I'm gone and still not blogging, you should totally check out this hot new read by Eden Bradley
The Dark Garden
A deliciously potent tale of one woman’s quest for self-discovery
Rowan Cassidy likes to be in charge—especially in her personal life. As a mistress at Club Privé, the most exclusive bondage/S & M club on the West Coast, Rowan can live out her dominant fantasies safely, and with complete control—until the night Christian Thorne walks in. Self-confident and sophisticated, he’s a natural dominant if Rowan’s ever seen one. Yet she can’t stop thinking about him and imagining his touch.
Christian has returned home, hoping to break free from his dissatisfaction and malaise—and discovers the cure in Rowan. He’s dying to get his skilled hands on her and watch her surrender, to unlock the mystery of her that captivates him. Determined to be her master, he makes Rowan a daring proposition: give herself over to him for thirty days.
Rowan finds Christian’s offer terrifying—and impossible to resist. But abandoning herself to Christian’s power might be more than she can handle…. Or it might be the realization of her true nature and the dark garden within her. There will be only one way to find out. And once the game has begun, there’s no turning back.
