Happy 75th birthday, Golden Gate Bridge!

My sister, Janae, and her family came to visit us over their kids' Spring Break.  It also happened to be the 75th birthday of the Golden Gate Bridge that first weekend they were visiting us.  So we piled into 2 vehicles and drove to San Francisco to see the GGB.  Janae is very much into photography so she wanted to go take pictures there.  We went to Baker Beach, which is where we had our family picture taken last Thanksgiving.  The traffic was crazy - Janae and Ryan were following us in SF and then we ran out of gas so had to find a gas station.  In the process of trying to find a station we lost Janae and Ryan.  Landon was in their car hanging out with his cousin Aubree.  Finally we found a gas station and started making our way toward Baker Beach.  We made it in just in the nick of time before the police discontinued access to the beach because it was too crowded.  Janae and Ryan didn't make it, so ended up heading out toward Sausilito, where we met them later.  In the meantime we enjoyed some time on the beach with the view of the magnificent Golden Gate Bridge.  Happy Birthday!
