So, we're back.



We Drove to Pismo Beach in central california wednesday night, crashed out, then drove up to Santa Cruz and then on to San Francisco



Here's whirly and the boy at the Santa Cruz Stonehenge







And here's whirly and Biff stuffing their pieholes with mexican food!







We took PCH up from santa cruz, and saw this cool lighthouse.







Here's the boy and whirly enjoying 'The San Francisco Treat' (not sodomy, the cable car)







Then we went to this very tasty brewpub and met up with MadPooter! It's dark in there.







Here's a cool one of the Golden Gate bridge, seen from the Sea lion area of Fishermans Wharf







This is my oldest and dearest friend Dave, who's Connor's godfather, and also happens to run the longest running Industrial/Goth club in San Fran







Here's Connor standing on the back of Dave's car.







The car used to belong to the guy from Information Society. He gave it to Dave during a Burning Man some years back. Apperently, he saw Dave and said 'You look like you belong with this car"







Then it started pissing down rain as we were leaving, and we didn't get to walk across the Golden Gate like we wanted to, so we drove.









Had a real blast meeting 'Pooter and Biff, very cool guys. Biff smells WAAAY better than you'd expect a Santa Cruz student to smell, and Pooter knows great restaurants.



See you bitches soon.

We need to do that trip some time when you're out here.



We stayed at this shitty motel 6 in pismo beach, and I was like, 'It's not complete without tim passed out in the corner!'

Darkstar - when we were at that Motel 6, it was like a giant flashback. When Connor was out cold, stash went over to the liquor store across the way and grabbed a drink which we split and went out in front of our room to have a smoke. We were reminiscing of Coachella and thought when the cops paid a visit to our room, it was a bonding experience like no other...



Bosco - you will absolutely love San Francisco!! It is a beautiful city with the gorgeous victorian architecture and pockets of things to see and do. One thing is, it's a hard city to drive in. The streets are all kind of narrow and between the muni cars and buses (which are like land sharks) combined with all the hills and regular city traffic, you may want to consider ditching the car once you get in town... if your relatives live in or close to the city. It's plenty easy to get around by public transportation, and even if you decide on getting a cab during later hours it's not that expensive.
be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle

"This is in Indio Police, can you open up?"



I was so shocked I didn't know what to do. I was so buslagged (and stoned) I just froze. Thank God 'stash can bullshit his way through a conversation about The Cure.

Yeah, it should be lots of fun. My Uncle is lives smack dab in the middle of San Fran, and is supposed to be a great tour guide of San Francisco. And my cousin who was/is into the whole punk-rock scene seems to know all the ins and outs of the city as well. So it should be pretty cool to see both of their perspectives of the city.

Great pics, me and my chile verde, haha classic. Like i've said before, you guys are fuckin awesome and it was so great to meet you. I'll definitly drop in L.A. or anywhere near when the chems do a live show (and hopefully meet you, Jeanie).



Of course if they're up in this area you guys are welcome to stay here, we have 3-sofa beds since we are hippies and our "pot parties" go late.

Biff, for the record, you look nothing like a hippie.

haha thanks, no I look "conservative" for the area, since I take showers and have short hair (well it was a bit long a month ago, but even then it was a foot short of santa cruz standards)

yeah, you really need a case of scabies for that authentic Santa Cruz vibe.
