San Bruno Mountain























Dan and I got to spend some time together and decided to hike San Bruno Mountain. He has been bugging me to do so for a long time. It was great, a little cold, but that's better than hot. We saw many raptors including, American Kestrels, Red Tailed Hawks, and I think some Coopers hawks. We hiked to the end of the ridge near the power lines and back, then we met up with Jonathan at YouTube HQ. :)

I love this City!!!

So as some of you may know, I volunteer every other Friday with the GGRO. I love it and get to see some of the most beautiful birds and views. I caught the quickest glimpse yesterday of a juvenile Golden Eagle. So amazing. Well we are basically atop the Marin headlands where no hikers can go. Here are a few shots.

View from the trail to Hawk blind. You can just make out the moon. Also, you can get a great view from Hawk Hill where any traveler can visit.The marine layer has begun its inevitable trip inland. You can see I am pretty high up. Just wonderful. Directly behind me is the City in the pic above this one.

A little bit late


Ok so here is the deal. I am a little on the late side. But well since this is the USA and I have freedom of speech then I can say what I want when I want. I am going to exercise this right, right now.


~NOV 4, 2008~
The BEST day of my life. Can I say that? Even though I got married, met my husband, um, traveled, let's see, met my nephews when they were born. True that all these things are very important days in my life. But, one day, just one special day, gives all those other days meaning. This day, gives me hope that my life and everyone around me and around around them will get the chance to have special days they will call the Best Day of their lives, all because of MY best day ever. Nov 4th, 2008. I have only one person to thank for giving me this day. Thank You, America.


I stole this from Bree(thanks!) and even though its over now, I still completely believe that my vote counted and everyone should too.
