I spent the end of last week in Jacksonville Beach, Florida where my younger brother got married on the beach. After I went on to "honeymoon" in San Francisco because he had to go back to work. Ha Ha!
My dad and brother greet me at the hotel in Jacksonville with a celebratory drink.
On Friday we spent the day downtown site seeing. The picture above is Jacksonville Landing, an outdoor shopping and entertainment spot on the river downtown.
Where else would you rather eat?
Mom, dad, and my brother pose for a picture.

Later at the hotel, Al's friends started arriving to check in their rooms. Tara, the lesbian "crowns" my brother!

After Jacksonville I flew on to San Francisco for my "honeymoon". "The Castro", one of the gayest neigborhoods, in the gayest city on earth. As quoted by the Daily Show!
I spent Monday shopping and walking around the district. Looking south on Castro Street.
Twin Peaks sign (a gay bar), sits below the giant Pride flag on Castro Street.
Street cars still operate in the district.
Looking north on Castro Street.
Mission High School, across from my guest house has some amazing architecture.
San Fran's bravest enroute to a call.
Tuesday was my day to be a tourist all over again. A view of the city from high atop Twin Peaks, not far from the Castro District where I was staying.

Stow Lake inside the massive Golden Gate Park is a great respute from everything.
