Day 13: Sonoma County & The Golden Gate Bridge
March 18, 2000
Picked up Dave Houle after his flight in from LA. Drove to the Hotel to drop off his 
stuff, then a stop on Broadway to see surf-bums Joe, Frank & Greg. Then a quick course correction and the drive North into Sonoma County.
Finally made it to Petaluma and Chris & Martha Monson's house. Chase & Blake got to play on the 3 Mountains...
Petaluma Barber Shop in the middle of nowhere hits home and kicks off our drive south to San Francisco
The drive back was nearing dusk, so we lit up the sign in the Rainbow tunnel and started a horn symphony with 
about 30 other cars. Laughter and singing to Def Leppard brought on staring from the cars around us. Then waving and picture taking and swerving. Pedestrians on the Golden Gate Bridge were dazed and confused.
Met up with my first "other" Blue Beetle - they were a bit shocked at the sight of us.
we drove into the city and stopped in the Presidio for a few choice bay city snapshots.
I think the Peter Cetera and the view got Dave to thinking he was Ralph Macchio
...or maybe Sly (wasn't that Philadelphia?)

Once we got back to the city, we picked up Jonathan, dropped the SmartBeetle off at the Palomar and cabbed it to the Kilowatt in the Mission to meet Alyson & Jason. Pushing and shoving were the norm with the patrons. Home to get some shut-eye. I'm glad i didn't bring the camera.
