Backpacking Point Reyes

Oh, let me count the ways this trip sucked!

1.)  We forgot part of the stove - and that is a story entirely to itself and deserves it's own post!

2.)  Raccoons busted into our tent looking for snacks.

3.)  My boot fell apart.

4.) We walked every day, for like 100 miles, up hill in both directions - or so it felt!

That said, there were some moments, mostly the first day or two, when I did appreciate the wild and rugged coastline we were hiking along.  Point Reyes really is a beautiful spot, and we had the most fabulous weather in which to enjoy it.  Here are some pic's we took.

Playing tourist in my own town

I recently spent the night in the City with my friend Michelle (dinner at a yummy little French resto in the Mission, far too much wine, and lots and lots of girl talk - waaaay more fun than joining Fish Boy on his fishing trip!) and on Saturday morning we went on the most wonderful walk from her house, through the Presidio, out to the beach, and all the way around to the Golden Gate Bridge and Fork Baker.  Here are pic's from the day - such fun being a tourist at home!
