336 MAN CAVES

Isn’t every man’s dream to have a ‘man cave’.  Well my husband has the best wife in the world.  I found 336 man caves for him.  I even offered to have food shipped to him every so often. 

He didn’t find this terribly amusing.

Especially seeing as I was talking about Alcatraz.

We visited the former Penitentiary (lighthouse and fort) during the week.  It’s truly an amazing experience.  A couple of it’s most famous prisoners being Al Capone and Robert Stroud.  It’s a little over a mile off the coast of San Francisco Bay and is accessible by Ferry.   Flynn was fascinated with his first ever boat ride.  He couldn’t have been happier.
