vacation highlights, in no particular order
My little brother is now married. That is weird. My new sister-in-law is a great lady that I'm looking forward to getting to know a lot better--and ahh shucks, for this to happen I probably have to make regular visits to San Fransisco. Bummer.
It is possible to drive from the Redwoods to Boise in one Very Long and Nauseous Day.
Luxury "camping" is underrated by the backpacking set.
As a person grows up, it is possible to spend longer periods of time with your parents without wanting to gouge eyeballs.
People from Boston have a strange relationship with the letter "R".
During the midst of a steep trudge uphill from the coast into the redwood forest, I heard my father ranting about stupid white guys, genocide against native peoples, and HOW could they have chopped down all of these beautiful and ancient trees! My Pops is not much of a lefty ranter, so yeah, awesome.
Who, on vacation, actually LOSES 5 pounds?
I'm not going to say I am not a fan, because I am a fan. However, it is possible that I overestimated the capabilities of San Francisco Public Transportation. (Erin, sorry I was so late!)
I'm guessing you probably shouldn't expect too much in the way of a real trip report since it has taken five days just to compose a quick highlights list. Hi! I'm home!

YAY! I missed you!
The three of us MUST get together again. P.S. My bike tire is now fixed so I don't have to try and park Brutus somewhere close to civilization!
I think we're going to Nacho Libre at the Egyptian tonight if'n you wanna come.
Bah, I can't tonight. :(
