John H. Chaffee Nature Preserve

It was a glorious day for a beach hike.

Let’s See

Small things are still happening as they always do. Let’s see if I can catch us up.

Escape From Valhalla

There were apparently wild animals afoot.

Valhalla

The scenery was outstanding, the company even better. We had a great day.

Bonnie Boost

Bonnie’s hike gave me the boost I needed to get outside and do my own hike.

Millard Falls and Home

California’s Central Valley is about 450 miles long and I drove through them all.

Completing the Loop

If I went back home through California, my road trip would make a loop.

Friends in Phoenix

Visiting with friends, and following friends’ recommendations, brought us to some pretty neat experiences.
