Leaving the East Coast for the West Coast City by the Bay!
Kris and I left Maryland at the crack of dawn (before dawn, actually) to travel to California. We will be staying just outside of San Francisco. We have a daytrip planned to Monterey on Friday, will be in SF over the weekend, and then we are heading to wine country for four days!
I am hoping to blog from California, so stay tuned for some of our adventures on the other coast! 
Wow! Have a wonderful time!
I am so jealous. Do you have room for a stow-away in your suitcase?
Have a great time! I could use a trip to wine country…just don’t bring the knitting to wineries with you, you might regret the results in the morning.
I’m so jealous you are going to my hometown! I hope you have a marvelous trip
What a beautiful photo. Have fun and RELAX!
You’re heading to a beautiful place! Can’t wait to hear all about it. Have fun!
welcome to the west coast! have a great time.
Ohh You will love it! I loved San Fran and especially the Napa Valley. St. Helena has natural mud baths, make sure not miss trying them out. Your skin will be smoooth! You can also buy mud there and bring it home!
Have fun!!!
Have a great trip! We’re having a great fall here in the SF Bay – and there is a great little yarn store in Pacific Grove, which is right next to Monterey!
Have a great trip!! I can’t wait to hear all about it!
Sounds like an amazing trip… Have a great time! Gorgeous picture!!
California is wonderful! I hope you enjoy yourself over while you’re on this side of the country.
Ooh, getting away with your sweetie – have fun!!!
have a good time! leave the west coast peeps some yarn will you?
Beautiful photo.
Have a great time on Cannery Row…it brings back wonderful memories. I love Monterrey and San Frisco. Enjoy every moment! Don’t forget to stop by Union Square if you can or to see The Painted Ladies along Alamo Square Park.
I hope you and Kris have a wonderful time! Can’t wait to see your souvenier yarn!
Have a great time. Grant is there too. Maybe you’ll run in to each other!
Hope you enjoy it here in California!
have a wonderful time, maryland will miss you!
Have a great trip!

Have fun in San Francisco! If you get a chance, you should check out Artfibers, small but unique. (http://www.yarndesign.com/)
You’re going to blog about how you NEVER WANT TO LEAVE. Mwah, have a great time.
Beautiful picture posted. Enjoy all of your trip.
I love San Francisco. I’d move there.
Have a wonderful trip!
Hope you have a wonderful holiday. It looks as though your love of blue has been set aside for reds now. Lovely yarn, and the sweater looks lovely so far.
Lolly! Have a super-fantastic time! I wish I was there
I’m soo jealous!! the Bay Area is my most favoritest place in the world. (not that I’ve BEEN many places in the world, but still) Have fun!!
I’ve been on Hwy 12 many a time. 
ooh, coming over to my side of the world.
Sounds like a fabulous trip. enjoy!
Have a GREAT trip!!! Have FUN!!!
You will enjoy lovely Monterey…and Napa..and not to mention SF. Have a wonderful trip.
Have a great trip! How I love SF. If you get near Golden Gate park, check out the mexican/tapas place Cha Cha Cha’s. Great sangria
Safe travels, Lolly.
have a great trip! enjoy your time on the other coast!
Have a great trip. Also, that picture just made me awfully homesick on this drear English afternoon. I agree that you may never want to leave.
Bon voyage! I am so envious. I’d love to hear about your wine country adventures, I’ve always wanted to do that! And I’m sure you’ll report back on knitterly things too!
Wow! I was just there a few weeks ago! Running a marathon! Enjoy the city, be sure to eat at a Boudin Bakery (mmmm but don’t count calories). Go to Union Square, Pier 39, Golden Gate Park, Presidio Park, etc.
Have fun! can’t wait to see pictures on your blog. We didn’t have time for yarn when we were there
Just running.
Han fun and hope you brought along Cherie!
Oh, how lovely! Hope you have a wonderful time!
*Sigh* I moved away from SF almost 3 years ago but still miss it nearly every day. I recommend a leisurely stroll through the Japanese Tea Garden in Golden Gate Park coupled with a visit to the new DeYoung Museum. I used to live about 8 blocks from them. And, in my opinion, no visit is complete without walking at least halfway across the Golden Gate Bridge!
Wave hello to all the palm trees for me. =) I miss California! My husband and I live in Michigan, but we moved from California a few years ago. Have fun!
That’s actually pretty close to the itinerary for our next SnB retreat. Have a great time!
Have fun on your trip! Take lots of pictures!
It’s probably too late, but hey! I live in Monterey! Monarch Knitting and Quilts is our fab LYS.
Totally hit the Aquarium, Lover’s Point in Pacific Grove, and Asilomar State Beach. And hey, if you do manage to get this before heading down here, let me know!
Hope you have a good time! Can’t wait to hear about your travels
Have a great time! Consider cruising through Sonoma County to visit Alchemy in Sebastopol while you are in California……
Hope you have a great time! Don’t get lost in wine country
really you must go through golden gate park. it’s gorgeous and amazing. i hope you have a wonderful time and enjoy yourselves to the fullest. the bay area is my most fave of them all.
You are going to my favorite Paradise—Monterey! I’m so jealous. Used to live there before I moved to the Pacific Northwest, and I really miss it! San Francisco is the greatest, and wine country as well! Have a great time! However, you might wish you spent more than one day in Monterey/Carmel area when you see it!
Bummer it’s going to rain tomorrow morning. I think the rest of the weekend is supposed to clear though.
But I hope you have fun and I think there’s supposed to be a really good yarn store in Monterey. And Art Fibers and Imagiknit in SF are great yarn stores too.
