A Week in the City by the Bay We arrived in San Francisco last Thursday, tired and somewhat exhilarated. After a brief wait for Sarah hugs and greeting ensued. Sarah, far prettier than her photos let on, hung out with us that evening, and as she mentioned on her blog, ate dinner with us.

An idea that may or may not be propogated intentionally.
