Climbing at Castle Rock State Park - June 14, 2008
Ok I know, that's a dramatic cut from my last post, but everyone keeps telling me to update my blog. So here it is: the update!
I just moved to San Francisco on June 1, 2008. It was a dramatic move, typical Clayton style with getting up at 4 am and having to time everything perfectly to get the rental van back in one day, but I made it. I gave a girl from Switzerland a ride all the way from Portland. She was couchsurfing (couchsurfing.com) and we had a good 10 hour chat about traveling and everything else.
Anyway, I made it, and got moved in here with my best friend David. We've got this ridiculous 1100 sq. ft. apartment behind the mint in Haye's Valley/Lower Haight area. I wouldn't normally have opted for an apartment this large, but for the same price we could have gotten a dungeon, so it was an obvious choice.
We've been spending some time nabbing furniture from various yardsales and craigslist posts. Today we scored a love-seat futon for the 'green room' - yes, we have room themes!
Work has been crazy busy. Check me out here: http://greenoptions.com/about.
The best part so far? The beach is only 20 minutes from our front door, and I've been surfing 3 times already (once before work!). I've also met some climbers already, and we went out to Castle Rock State Park this weekend.
Thing are going well, just have to try and establish some balance. Doesn't seem like there's enough time in the day, but I'm having fun.

Hey Clayton!! My husband is from Vacaville, and actually spent alot of time out in San Fran. I've only been once, but I sure loved it that one time! Did you move in with a David that I know? Anyway, it's always fun for me to catch up on what my old friends are up to. Hope all is well!!
