Today after a call in Walnut Creek I drove up to Grizzly Peak Road. Just before 2:00, a terrible time to do this, sun right in my face. Regardless I decided to try another pano.

Grizzly Peak revisited
Golden Gate
After finishing up work in San Rafael, I drove to the GG for a little exploration. Typically I only view this beautiful landmark when we have out of town visitors, but today I was in the mood for some photos and just by chance the Blue Angels were practicing for their Fleet Week Show. The first pano is taken from Fort Baker.

Harbor Bay Picnic
Today we went to the 17th Annual Harbor Bay Isle Community picnic at Tillman Park. As usual Sandy took better photos… whadya gonna do.
Golden Cockatiel
No I don’t like Judy, but the light that was cast on her this evening was excellent.
Blondie
The light-colored duckling is now full-grown and she is noticeably different. We call her Blondie.
Holidays
The holidays must be around the corner because today I saw the Holiday Hawk.
Back to School
Last night we ventured back to high school… for a performance by Jon at Hogan High in Vallejo. It was a wonderful concert. The orchestra sounded great.
Jon invited us to his dressing room which was actually a classroom. So while waiting for the show to end we had some foto-fun.
Best of Alameda
I finally did something other than work. Today, I met Jim over at Alameda Point for the Best of 2007 Party. It was jam-packed with fun loving, beautiful people. There was great food, live music, wine, beer, ice carver, juggler, magician, face painter, it was too much fun. It was nearly impossible to balance a plate full of food, wine glass and all my camera equipment. I had to ditch the plate.
Labor Day
This year’s Labor Day picnic was held at Vasona Park. We engaged in large quantities of food, competitive badminton and napping. Unfortunately I hardly shot any pix.
Steve at 60
Today is Steve’s actual birthday so we had a quiet celebration at Steve & Diane’s… Well it was quiet til the enchiladas started kicking in. We did bring a delicious toasted almond ice cream cake from Tucker’s.
Meanwhile Sandy fell in love with Diane’s granddog Thistle, Swizzle or Fizzle.
