I left my heart in (the) San Francisco(-ish area)

I'm back from a great 4-day stay in the Bay area visiting some of my college friends (notably Maddie whose birthday was yesterday!).  There are a bunch of them out there, but they're mostly spread out, which meant that we spent time in San Francisco, Berkeley, Davis, Sacramento, and Santa Cruz.  It was a lot of driving around, but also SO much fun. 

I have so many things to say and chronicle about what we did, but for now, these are some of my favorite non-people/non-food shots of the weekend:

Golden Gate bridge, and a boat with fun colors

 

Way up on top of a hill stood a white sofa, and an amazing view of SF

I liked how this tree matched the house behind it

My favorite house that we passed in Santa Cruz

Gorgeous calla lilies across from the Seabright Beach in Santa Cruz
