Hello I'm Rich Brown and this is my personal website and blog. I'm just your simple, average, down to earth, professional, out gay man and aspiring circuit boy, living in Phoenix, Arizona with a few things to say while trying to find my place among all the scary, conservative, religious nuts in this sick and twisted world.

Weekend In San Francisco
It was a short weekend in San Francisco. I would have loved to stay longer, but that wasn't in the cards for either of us. I flew in on Friday afternoon, and Justin flew in on Saturday after he finished work.
Jason, Jerry and Anthony also arrived on Friday along with the San Diego crew. It was a pretty jam packed weekend. We headed out to Chez Papa, a fantastic french restaurant for dinner on Friday night, and then over to the Castro for a few drinks. Around 1 AM we headed down to the End-Up where we danced for a bit before heading back to Bernard's around 5 AM.
Saturday was spent out with the boys trekking around San Francisco during the day, and a little shopping in the early evening. Around 9 PM there was a radio sponsored fireworks show and Bernard's building held a little rooftop party complete with drinks, food and DJ where everyone could gather to watch the fireworks. It was very nice. The rest of the evening was spent at the Adonis event, which I've detailed in the previous post. Following Adonis we headed back to the End-Up until around noon and then back to Bernard's to catch a few hours of sleep before boarding our flight back home to Phoenix at 6 PM.
Bernard was once again a gracious host, and we had an absolutely fabulous time in San Francisco. Every time I go back there I realize how much I miss living in a big city, moreover San Francisco. The city holds so many hidden treasures when comes to shopping, restaurants and things to do. The only downside for me to San Francisco is that it's cold as hell there. I left here and it was 95 degrees in Phoenix, but the daytime highs in San Francisco were in the 60's. It rarely gets any warmer there, and the nights are chilly when the damp fog layer rolls in over the hill. I guess it's a trade off, warm weather, hot boys and nothing to do, or a city full of almost everything you could ask for. Who knows, maybe someday we'll end up back in San Francisco. Cheers.
Those are fabulous rooftop shots Rich! I understand what you're saying about the weather in both places, for me SanFran weather is more comfortable but you're used to the Arizona heat!
