Alan and I took a three-day trip to San Francisco this summer. Without Cooper. For the first time. We had a great time.
For the first day and a half, this was the only photo we took:
These seven Victorian houses are known as the "painted ladies." The middle one is the house where the Full House family (from the 80s sit-com) lived.
Then I felt bad that the only photo I had taken in SF was a pop culture reference from my childhood. So we took some more:
A cable car:
Us:
The flag from the boat we took to Alcatraz:
Alcatraz island:
We had a great tour of the island and the prison. Fantastic!
In other, less-fun travel, Cooper and I took a trip to Joplin, Missouri. He had been pretty obsessed with talking about and reading about the tornado. We had a couple of days off this summer, so we went down to Missouri to visit a high school friend of mine, and we detoured through Joplin.
The devastation is pretty astounding.

Wow...I still can't believe what that tornado did to Joplin...that's crazy how devastating such things can be.
On a separate and brighter note, I absolutely love San Francisco. Great town...great music...a little on the pricey side, but good for a visit. I didn't go to Alcatraz when I was there, but I could see it clearly from my hotel balcony (I stayed in Sausalito on the other side of the bay from S.F.). Colleen and I are currently deliberating on whether a trip there for our 10th (in 4 years) would be worth it. Looks like you had a good time...
