Wildflowers, but few birds, at Bon Tempe Lake (Marin, California)

Yesterday (Sunday) Sarah, her mother Diane, and I went for a hike around Bon Tempe Lake in the Marin Municipal Water District. I was looking forward to seeing what was blooming compared to the last time we were here, in early March. We hit the trail at around 11:30 under sunny skies and low-70s temperatures,…

A hike to Alamere Falls (Point Reyes, California)

Sunday, 20 May 2007 We went for our annual hike to Alamere Falls on Sunday, and had the pleasure of going with my colleague Ondrej, who is here for business from Prague. Sarah & I have done this hike every year since 2003, and it remains one of our very favorites in the Bay Area.…

French Jewelry and a walk along the SF coast

Sarah & I went to see the Masterpieces of French Jewelry at the Palace of the Legion of Honor yesterday and had a fine time of it. After a tasty breakfast at the Sea Breeze Cafe, we drove to the Legion. As we passed by Sutro Heights Park, Sarah saw a woman in the jewelry…

A weekend at the cabin

Sarah & I spent a lovely 3-day weekend with our friends Debey & Terry at my family’s cabin, just east of Calaveras Big Trees State Park. This was our first visit this calendar year, and as is often the case, we chided ourselves for not coming up more often, as it’s only about a 3.5-hour…

Irises galore on the Estero Trail (Point Reyes, California)

Sarah & I did our annual hike on the Estero Trail in Point Reyes on Sunday, and as we have for the past 4 years, had a lovely time. After a tasty breakfast at the Pine Cone Diner we drove through lovely Inverness, arriving at the nearly-empty Estero Trailhead just before 11. The Estero Trail…

Mendocino – Day II

14 April, 2007 We awoke early in the morning to pounding rain, which tapered off to a drizzle by the time we got up. Breakfast at our B&B was a tasty buffet of fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, and savory pastries, just my thing! By the time we finished eating the rain had stopped entirely, so…

Mendocino – Day I

13 April, 2007 Sarah & I left home at around 9:30, heading north on US101 to Cloverdale, then northwest on picturesque, but extremely windy, Hwy 128. We were both excited to be heading to Mendocino, as I’d only been there as a child, and Sarah never. Along the way we stopped at the Apple Farm…

Audubon Canyon Ranch Bolinas Lagoon Reserve

Sarah & I went for a lovely hike today at the Audubon Canyon Ranch Bolinas Lagoon Reserve just north of Stinson Beach. The reserve, privately owned by the Audubon Society, is open only for a few months out of the year, and only on weekends then. They’re well-known for their heronry, which these days is…

Wildflowering at Edgewood Park (Redwood City, California)

Sebby & I had a lovely hike at Edgewood Park with my dad, who recently got the same camera I have (Canon 30D), and was excited to check out its macro capabilities on whatever spring wildflowers we could find. I’m only now getting to post this since I’m behind on editing photos. We did the…

Hiking @ Point Lobos State Reserve

(This is the first of several hike reports and a trip report that I can finally write now that I’ve finished going through and editing the photos I took!). En route to a 3-day weekend in Big Sur for my birthday, we stopped off at Point Lobos State Reserve, just south of Carmel, for some…
