First entry of our trip to San Francisco From Klamath Falls for the Boy's 9th Birthday

The boy is gone to school and the man off to work and I am here alone. I have a metric assload of laundry to do but I also have a metric assload of photos and videos to process and email and post, etc. Much work ahead but for now...

I managed to stay raw for most of the trip, other than the alcoholic beverages and a couple of nutter butter peanut butter sandwich cookies, which are horrible junk but at least they are vegan. I brought a large amount of bananas, oranges, grapes and raw flaxseed crackers so I had plenty to eat. I didn't go to restaurants except the man took me to Cafe Gratitude. We split the appetizer platter, had a green juice and a shot of E3live, shared an enchilada and a slice of ginger pear cheesecake.

And now a word about the Repaired Kitty Fund. You can click the button over there>>> if you want and donate.

**********************************

Thanks to everyone who has donated to the Kitty Repair Fund. We have raised $880 the last I heard and that is just pretty great if you ask me, but if you can, please give a couple more bucks.


Here is a photo of Repaired Cat and a new friend. Please do go here and read about her progress

Back to the story.
I know it's a couple of days late but here is my tribute to 4/20.


We left at the crack of dawn, 7 am. We wanted to get in early and be able to relax.















And now, the terribly coincidental places we stopped in on the way there.


This is the water tower that I keep telling you about that says POT on it. I think this is Dorris, but I'm not positive if that is the of the name of the town.






The town could be named POT for all I know. After all, we are coming up on Weed.







I love the classics.













You know some teenager risked life, limb and freedom to scramble up that rickety old tower and inscribe those three letters. It warms my heart.




Grass Lake.

















There are many beautiful rest stops on the way. Grass Lake is in the perfect location for a last minute bathroom stop before we get into the winding mountain and we have stopped there before.
There are usually a lot of birds there but I didn't see any big cranes.














Goofing off
















Looking like my mother.














And then we went to Weed, California.
Usually we just cruise through Weed and I say, Look, Boy, a TOTEM POLE, and he says COOL! or AWESOME! and we keep going but this time, for 4/20 the man thought it would be a good idea to get a Weed, Ca, commemorative t-shirt.



Something like this









While they were in the store I got this photo of the mountain and the arch and the sunrise.















And that was it for the marijuana themed 4/20 entry. An illegal drug that I NEVER DO and you shouldn't either. Cheers.

I will come back later with more photos and witty commentary. I'm tired and need rest.
