Hampton Inn & Suites Sacramento/Elk Grove

... So off we went to Starbucks and got another warm milk with 2 grains of coffee in it.

After another quick visit into the outlets to make some more purchases we hit the road for Warner Bros studios for the taping of Two and a half men. The drive was pretty cool with most cars driving around the 90 mile mark and the odd one or two around the 110 mark. I managed to take a picture of the speedo as I was driving but only snapped it around the 90. I will ...

A lovely day -- with an easy drive out to Sacramento, a good day visiting Sac State (which is a very pretty campus, especially this time of year, with the leaves changing), then an easy drive home. Definitely a long day, and I was exhausted by the end of it, but not a bad one at all.

It was my fall break of my senior year in college and my roommate and I were looking for a fun getaway. She had an uncle she was quite close to who lived in Sacramento so we decided to make a trip out there to visit!

A College friend of ours who had graduated the previous year had signed up from Americorps and she was stationed out this way ...

I woke early for the last leg of my journey feeling betwixt and between. Anxious to be home in the bosom of family and comfort of my bed, and sad to have the adventure behind me.

Thinking no further explorations would present themselves I saw a strange abode off the road in the middle of the dessert a couple of hours West of Winnemucca. I took the next exit, got onto a frontage road ...

5-7) Tie between Secret Garden B&B Iguazu, Galiazzi Basily B&B Ushuaia and Ninos Hotel in Cusco. All were fun places to stay.

Loved Alejandro the owner of Galiazzi ...

... us had really eaten yet for the day. So we were starving. Bad thing to go to a bakery when you're starving. We must have gotten one of just about everything in the store. And they were huge offerings. Shameful, I know. At least we only actually ate one item per person. We took the rest home for later. After the bakery, we just meandered around town. Checked out the neighborhoods, the shops, saw some fantastic views of the Sacramento River ...

... If you are so inclined, and like to think of alternate modes of transportation and the ability to modify, while keeping the main point in the fore, check out online the "Meadowlark" boat design, as well as the "Sabb" diesel engine. Several alternatives are possible here. The Sailboat part is obvious, free wind, accompanied by the most expensive addition to the yacht, which was the "Airless" head which separates solids from liquids and the lower compartment has a ...

... The structure is massive and seeing is truly believing. The sun was setting to the west and the sky was shades of orange, red and yellow along the horizon. Breathtaking! We attempted to capture the view with the camera, but as we all know, it did not do it justice. "A" for effort on our part. We pulled off the highway to a lookout (aka...makeout point as know to the locals) to watch the sunset. It was worth it! Once in San Francisco ...
