time just flies

Time will just fly by when you are not looking.
ok to pick up where I left off, this blog might be a little longer than it should be. Our 3rd day in CA. I had phone interview for a job, (no I did not accept it), moving forward, Heather and I were going to hang out, but she ended up having a yucky bug, and stayed home to get better. I stayed at the hotel and had dinner with Dave that night. Thursday I decided to take a trip to San Francisco. Yes readers I went to Alcatraz!!! I had a great time. I saw so many things. I spent 10 seconds in solitary! That seriously felt like it was a full minute. Can you imagine people that had to be in there for days and days at a time. I met an actual inmate. (bought his book for heather and had him sign it for her birthday gift.) I spent almost 3 hours on the rock taking in the view and the history. If you have the chance, go visit the rock.
I got back in the Challenger and off I went, I took advantage and drove across the SF bridge and the Bay bridge. I had fun but was so ready to be off the streets of San Francisco, and began my trek back to Sunnyvale.
Friday was packing for our trip home on Sat. morning. However we had a surprise birthday party to go to for Heather. Yes everyone she was TOTALLY surprised. Derrick had the theme from the 80's we all wore sunglasses and had pop rocks, movie posters all over the walls, and of course what is a party without "nerds" We had a great time.

Off again and onto our next adventure. We will keep you posted.
