21 Apr The First Settlers
Ever wonder why travel books always start with some history lesson about the first settlers when all your looking for is the best burger? Well, before I launch into  my recent  trip to San francisco with my youngest daughter Carissa, I find myself first wanting to explain a little about who I travel with and what I have learned from them. So, as hungry as you might be for that burger, hang in there as I expound a bit about the first settlers.

THANKS Christina for all that you have taught me about travel (and everything else)!! And last but not least, make sure you have a understanding, supportive and generous wife (like mine) that allows for these adventures that I take! Thanks for allowing this brief but important history lesson as we get ready to talk about the best places to see and eat…..Â
