It means so much to me...truly. I am glad you like the posts, and its all just beginning! Regarding Walnut Creek. I have family there and it is just acting as my base. I plan to spend my days in downtown San Fran actually. Maybe I should change the itinerary to "San Francisco"...what do you think? @Andrew – Thanks for the awesome encouragement!

My fiance recently had a graduation event for her school (where everyone dressed up and wore nice shirts and dresses and stuff). Being stubborn as I am, I refused to buy any "nice" clothes and wore my Icebreaker/Cloudveil outfit, same as any other day. It worked out fine. I just made sure not to lose face, and remain as confident as possible, and no one even noticed. By high-school-fashion standards I was definitely the "worst dressed", but make sure to keep your conversation interesting, and no one will even look. @Tim – Regarding bringing dressy clothes: Its amazing how far the convertable pants can take you.

I wouldn't call Walnut Creek exactly exotic, but still very cool what you're doing. Andrew Very cool man, you’re in my favorites so keep up the good work.

Man I don't know how you and Tynan get so much in your packs (especially your sleeping bag) I don't think I am taking nearly as much as you guys and my pack is stuffed to the brim, I'm going to have to leave the semi-dressy clothes I wanted to bring for clubs at home due to space limitations!
