This year we celebrated Easter at The Oyar’s house. So many kids creating chaos…and Cait has another one on the way, it’s a girl!

Bald Eagles
I saw on the news there is a pair of nesting bald eagles in Milpitas. I spent 4 hrs waiting for something exciting to happen. Other than a small hawk chasing the male it was boring and uneventful.
Itani Ramen
The Yuen’s took me to checkout the new place… Itani Ramen. I have to admit it was pretty good. I’m headed back to try the Duck Ramen.
Rock Point Beach

EOS-M System

Canon EOS-M5
