Oceanside Golf

Because I had today off for President's day, I went golfing. I got a couple of guys together from work and made a tee time at the Links at Bodega Harbour, an ocean side course in Bodega Bay. I was really excited to play, but the weather forecast looked terrible. There was a 60-90% chance of rain the whole day.  We decided to make the two and a half hour drive anyway and take our chances. When we arrived it was raining, and it continued raining through the first three holes. On the forth tee it stopped raining and started to clear up.  It turned out to be a great day!

This is only one the the great views we where treated to today.  There where ocean views on every hole. It was a bit distracting! 

My tee shot on the par three eighth hole. I found the green 20ft left of the pin.

Tour of California

Today we went downtown to check out the Tour of California. It's a professional cycle race throughout the state. Today they had the prologue in Sacramento which is time trials, so you get to see each of the riders separately on a set 2.4 mile course. All the top cyclists were here including Lance Armstrong (his first race since coming out of retirement), Levi Leipheimer, Fabian Cancellara, and Floyd Landis.

Before it started we walked around and found the Bissel team warming up.

This is Fabian Cancellara. He is the current gold medalist and won the prologue in 4:32.

I was so excited to see Lance Armstrong! He's riding so fast he's a little blurry! You can see all the people in the background trying to get pictures.

Super Sunday!

What a wonderful day at the flea market. We're in LOVE! We found this 1930's buffet in robin's egg blue.

After first looking at it and measuring it, we left it thinking we couldn't get it home. Then we had to go back because we couldn't even 

concentrate. We just kept thinking about it. So after going back and remeasuring it and talking to the vendor, we learned he and his wife were from a northern suburb of Sac. They said they could drop it off on the way home. Yay!

Sunday Project

While Lucy was getting her haircut today, we strolled through IKEA and found this curtain system. We decided it was perfect for a backdrop behind our sofa. And Lucy wanted to get in the picture and show off her new style.

Crochet Crazy

So on Friday, I decided to teach myself to crochet. I've always wanted to know how. I went to Michael's, got a Learn to Crochet kit, and watched some YouTube videos and Ta-Dah! I should hopefully have a blanket done just in time for April. To bad I probably won't need it then!

And we haven't posted a picture of our new table. I wasn't in love with our other tables and they were much to bulky for our furniture, so we craigslisted them.

Google Map

We just posted a new link to the right for our Google Map. It shows where we've been, favorite restaurants, Josh's golf courses and where we work. Hopefully we can figure out how to attach a small picture to each place also. 

Geary and Fillmore

Saturday, Josh and I went to San Francisco. First, we bummed around the city, went to some favorite shops and ate at Escape From New York. It's pizza and I had a slice of potato and garlic (yum!) and Josh had a slice of pesto and a slice of ultimate veggie (yum too!). Then we headed out to Point Lobos and Sutro Heights Park on the very northwest part of the peninsula. 

This fall during another trip to Frisco, we walked through an art fair and fell in love with some prints made by Hilary Williams. We took one of her cards and vowed to get a print eventually. So after getting some cash for Christmas, we decided a print would be a great gift to ourselves. We chose Creating Sounds of John's Past and Future because of the location near Geary and Fillmore.

We couldn't wait to get it up in the apartment.
