No Room at the Inn

I had a busy weekend and wanted to share some pictures with everyone, partly because I thought people may enjoy looking at some pictures, and partly because I'm tired of looking at the sweatshirt post!

So I had 4 visitors this weekend and we had a great time. You would think 5 girls in a 1 bedroom apartment would not be fun but we had a blast. My friend Leah from West Springfield came out and she brought her friend Janet. Also, two of my best friends from Clemson were able to come visit - Erin and Kristin. Erin visited from Atlanta and Kristin only had to drive a few hours from Lake Tahoe.

On Friday, we went to Monterey and did the 17 Mile drive. Here is a picture of all of us on top of a big rock. The only reason I decided to climb it is that they told me I wouldn't be able to because I was wearing flip-flops and a skirt:

It was a perfect day! Not too hot, not too cold, and for once - no fog! Here is a picture of the Lone Cyprus:

On Saturday morning we were up bright and early and headed to Napa. We were able to visit 6 different wineres! We were able to meet up with one of Erin's old friends from work who recently moved out here too so that was fun. Here is a picture of all of us in front of ZD:

Saturday night we were all pretty exhausted so we just rested up for a big day in SF. We saw Coit Tower, Lombard Street, attempted to see the bridge but it was too foggy, the Boudin tour, the Full House houses, Pier 39, and Fisherman's Warf. I am tired even thinking about it again!!!

Here is the view from the bottom of Coit Tower - that fog is the reason they didn't get to see the bridge!

I think this picture is funny - it is Kristin and I goofing around in front of the Full House houses. I stole this picture from Leah and it took Erin about 5 tries on my camera before we quit:

And here was our last stop of the night! We had dinner at my favorite restaurant in the city and then went and had dessert at Ghirardelli Square - it was delicious! Another funny fact - this picture was taken by someone who lives in Westfield - we met about 5 different familes from MA this weekend and 3 of them were from Western Mass!
My last visitors left last night at 10PM. Before they left they got me these BEAUTIFUL flowers as a thank you. Orange and purple for Clemson obviously...and pink just because I love pink! They looked much better before I started messing with them in the vase but they are still gorgeous!

So that is all that I've got...now it is back to work and the real world. I am going to SC for Labor Day to see all my friends, go to the football games, and to meet Gretchen! I am VERY excited about that! And when I get back it will be time to pick where I go next...who knows where I will end up!
