Our neighbors Dave & Gwen, Sarah and I camped at Portola Redwoods State Park for a short weekend getaway, and I was very happy to reintroduce myself to this park, which I camped at often as a child.

After setting up camp we went for a short walk to explore the immediate area around the campground.
DetailsMy wonderful wife-to-be Sarah quit her corporate job of 15 years in April of 2007, and made the difficult decision to pursue her dream of becoming a full-time jeweler. Many classes and countless studio hours later, she is creating some beautiful pieces (granted I may be a little bit biased). We’ve been working hard on…

Sarah and I spent a lovely Saturday in Point Reyes, first hiking along Abbott’s Lagoon and picnicking on the beach, and then walking a little ways out on the Tomales Point Trail to enjoy the glut of wildflowers that’s usually there this time of year. We weren’t disappointed – loads of irises, radish, and various asters lined the trail. Birding was very good at both locations, and I even got a lifer (Red-necked Grebe).
Since I’m so far behind in posting, I will dispense with the words and let the photos tell the tale.

After breakfast, Jim, Diane, Sarah & I took the Subte to the Plaza de Mayo. It being rush hour, the Subte was very crowded; given its 1.3 million person daily ridership, this was not a surprise.
