Pinnacles!

Since both of us had free days Monday and Tuesday--and are both recently recovered from various colds and nasty bugs--we decided we wanted to go do something outdoors and active. But what, and where?

It was freezing this week in California (literally) and we figured that Tahoe and Yosemite were both too far and too cold (especially considering we'd both recently been ill) for a quick overnight trip. Big Sur and Ventana seemed like they might be a good idea, but again, distance and chilly weather were limiting options, and we've also been to those places so often that we wanted something different. Same thing with Point Reyes.

And then, all the sudden, we thought of Pinnacles. It's 130 miles from San Francisco, an easy drive, and has some of the most gorgeous landscape in California. Plus, California Condors. It turned out to be a great choice, and I uploaded a bunch of pictures to Flickr to prove it. Tuesday was particularly nice, as we more or less had the park to ourselves--unless you count friendly bobcats.

Bonus: note my groovy Vox and [this is good] T-shirts.
