My most recent vacation | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Interested in visiting SF? Click on the above picture for information. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
I recently visited San Francisco from May 19 through 24, 1999 with my best friend Trent. We had a blast. It was a well deserved vacation. We did a lot of the usual touristy stuff and enjoyed the nightlife (like that was a big surprise). San Francisco is truly a Gay mecca! Here are some pictures from our vacation. Some of them are really goofy but they were funny. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Places we visited while on vacation | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Golden Gate Bridge Fisherman's Wharf Castro District - the Gay area Nob Hill - my goodness, we couldn't believe the million dollar homes Santa Cruz Corte Madera plus the Shopping District - like were gonna miss out on that :-) |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Nightclubs we visited in SF | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
There were so many clubs for all different kinds of tastes. We just had to visit some of them. For those who will ask.... yes, both Trent and I were both good boys while down there :-). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Here I am posing for the camera by the Golden Gate Bridge with the San Francisco skyline and Alcatraz in the background. The weather was so beautiful. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Trent looking smug for the camera. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
a country-western nightclub. We did a little dancing and it was tequila shooter night for me. Trent and I saw a man with the most perfect butt we had ever seen at this club :-). | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
N Touch | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
a nightclub for Asians and their admirers. We actually ended up hanging out here for a couple of nights because we had a really great time. The barstaff was very hospitable to us boys visiting from Seattle. We saw a drag show and it was fabulous! I think the hostess' name was Tita. She was wonderful and hilarious. She performed a song about her Pussy getting hot, wet, and hairy. Now get your mind out of the gutter, she was singing about her cat :-). An inside joke for Trent, "look into the ray of light....." | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Powerhouse | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
a leather club that is reminiscent of the Cuff in Seattle except nastier and without a dance floor. This place was packed (we could barely move). We saw so many gorgeous men in leather walking around (we felt a little self-conscious). My goodness, the stuff we saw going on in the dog run made us blush! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
LoneStar | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
a bar for bears and their admirers. We didn't spend much time in here because we were just passing through but it looked fun. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
I saw the mural and had Trent pose for a picture. Little did he know, I had him right under the horse's ass. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Me after riding the cable car. Trent and I were singing "Rice-a-roni, the San Francisco treat" during our ride. Gosh, we must have seemed retarded! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Trent and I saw some interesting characters while in SF. We were touched by an angel so we just had to take a picture. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Trent and I took our own picture. It's kinda goofy but the picture didn't turn out too bad :-) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
One of the main reasons to go to SF was to visit one of my other best friends, Fred. He moved down there from Seattle a few years ago. This picture didn't turn out too well :-( | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Me on the beach in Santa Cruz. Too bad it wasn't summer, we could have seen all the cute boys playing beach volleyball. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Trent on the pier at Fisherman's Wharf with Alcatraz in the background. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
This is Lee. He was visiting from Tulsa, Oklahoma. Isn't he a hottie? He was a really nice guy. We met a lot of people from out of town. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
But he got me back by snapping a picture of me drying off after a shower. I learned quickly to lock the door. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Trent's gonna kill me for putting this picture up. I surprised him while he was working on his "beauty secrets". | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Here I am after taking a nap. This picture shows the one tattoo that I have. I'm a big Winnie-the-Pooh fanatic. I guess I'm a kid at heart. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Trent is feeling energized after his nap. He's showing his wildside here by jumping up and down on his bed. Watch out for this party animal! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
While at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk (the site where "The Lost Boys" was filmed, Trent and I decided to go for a ride. We hadn't been on a merry-go-round since we were kids. It was fun (can't you tell?). This was the only ride that I could talk Trent into going on with me. Note the safety harness on Trent. :-) | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
We saw some cool street performers on Fisherman's Wharf. We just had to get our pictures taken with them. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
