Ahoy, mateys! This Friday, I will be sharing with you my collection of pressed penny souvenirs. You know those machines that look like coin slot phones, but actually have these copper ellipses painted on the sides? Yeah, those are pressed pennies, and I collect them. You can get them at many locations in the U.S., but enough of my rant. Let's get to it!
Winchester Mystery House, San Jose, California.
Yeah, okay, I get it. My photography sucks. In my defense, I took these photos with my mom's phone on our living room rug.
Christmas In The Park, San Jose, California
The Tech Museum, San Jose, California
When my parents recognized computers from the 90's that looked like boxes, I finally realized how ancient they are. (My parents, not the computers)
JK 💗 you guys!
Muir Woods, Marin, California
The trees here are even more ancient than my parents, and that's saying something!
Still kidding, of course.
San Francisco Zoo, San Fransisco, California
Loved it!
Yosemite National Park, California

Mono Lake, Lee Vining, California
This lake has a high sulfur content. It also has a lot of quicksand which STOLE MY MOM'S SHOE!
Lake Shasta Caverns, Redding, California

No, I am not going to make another Travelogue post because we didn't take enough photos. 😞
Not a penny, but a cute keychain from Yosemite. Funny fact; although a bear sighting is supposedly 'rare', my dad has seen one every time he's been to Yosemite. And he's been there a lot!
I call him RaspBEARy
Cheesy, I know
Berry cheesy
