One of the Best San Francisco Attractions - The Golden Gate Bridge

If you’ve ever visited the San Francisco Bay Area in California, nine times out of ten you’ve visited the Golden Gate Bridge. It is the most fascinating bridge for many reasons.

The Golden Gate Bridge is one of the most famous suspension bridges that connects the city of San Francisco to Marin County. It’s one of the first things that I saw when I first visited San Francisco. Since that first viewing of the Golden Gate I was totally enthralled. I have been to the Golden Gate Bridge many times and have always felt a thrill each time I visited.

Naming Your Baby a Unique Name

I made a comment on an article about naming baby in which I said, "Naming a baby should take thought. I hate when parents choose stupid names for their kids.

The article I am referring to was written by another Associated Content writer. Her name is Judy Kaelin and here's a link to her article How to Choose the Best Name for Your Baby. Now, she makes a lot of sense to me. She mentions that you should think carefully about what you name your baby. From:  Naming Your Baby a Unique Name
