San Francisco and Oregon May 2007

Went to San Francisco for work. Wonderful weather this time. Stayed at my usual favorite place, Cow Hollow Motor Inn, at Lombard and Steiner. Ate mostly on Chestnut Street. Saw some of my old favorites (like Marin Headlands) and some new stuff (like Oakland and Lake Merritt). Flew (at my expense, not work's) to Portland for the 3 day weekend and had a wonderful time exploring the Astoria area of Washington and 2/3rds of the Oregon Coast. Saw all of the OR lighthouses except Arago (ran out of time). San Francisco never disappoints.....
