Close Encownters

As Chris mentioned, we have been venturing off into North Bay to seek out new hiking trails and warmer weather. On Saturday we headed to Point Reyes National Seashore, which is about an hour away from our apt, though on this day was missing the warm part. While there we walked down 308 stairs to visit a lighthouse, hiked cliff-side, and saw elephant seals, elk, deer, shrews andoh so many cows. We actually drove our car through the middle of their pasture. No fences.

After spending a disproportionate amount of time in the car riding from one destination to another, we decided to have dinner at Point Reyes Station before driving home. We ate at an organic restaurant which was pretty good, but it was Chris' last minute decision to order the berry pie and ice cream as dessert that made it awesome!

All in all it was a fun trip, but it will probably be a while before we visit "Point Reyes Cow Adventure" again. Coming up next week we will be visiting Minneapolis, and Duluth(for Chris' cousin's wedding), and the following week Chris' parents will be visiting SF. We hope to make our first trip to Yosemite with them!! Hopefully I can get all my freelance work done(that I have the unfortunate timing of getting now) and I can participate in all the fun events. If not I'll just have to read the hav-wartz blog and pretend I was there. Maybe he can paste me into the pictures, ...or maybe I should stop writing and get to work so I don't have to pretend:)
