Norcal Beaches

June 19th, 2006 5 Comments

Last Saturday, Dan and Ulysses lead the way to Point Reyes National Seashore. We quickly discovered that being 2.5 hours northwest of Sacramento meant that it was about thirty degrees cooler. At first it was a bit chilly but it was easy to forget the cold because it was beautiful and just so nice to be away (how many times have I said this lately?!). And while I’m on the subject, it sure was nice to have a break from the hellish weather we’ve been having in El Capital lately. It’s going to be over 100 degrees for the next four or five days which is lovely! Maybe we’ll have to take another trip to the coast this weekend! So we checked out the lighthouse and hung out there for a while and then made our way to Bear Valley Trail. After lunch we went on an 8.4 mile trek to the beach. Luckily it was a pretty much flat and easy walk, not too strenuous on the body. This all happened, of course, one year to the day after climbing Fuji–kind of a cool thing to do one year later, I guess.  It’s sort of like an annual tradition to remind myself that I am extremely out of shape! ;) Well, we all had fun together and it was great to get out with the guys. Here are some pics.

Eyes on LA

June 1st, 2006 5 Comments


Spending the weekend in LA made us realize how much we miss life in Socal.
There was just something different about this time…


Eric took the Lin Sisters (and Steven) and myself to Little Ethiopia for a nice lunch on Sunday.


It was as good as usual and I think that the first-timers enjoyed it as well.


Eric taught us that it is customary in Ethiopian culture to feed your loved ones first
before you take a bite. So just as he tried to feed me…


I said, “Sick balls, Chopper!” Just kidding. But I had to fit that in somehow!
(It was kind of scary when these dogs came running at me though.
I thought that one of them might actually be Chopper.)


The police and Venice Beach, it just wouldn’t be the same without them.


Kids, don’t try this at home.


Who wears these T-shirts anyway?!


There is always somebody looking.


But sometimes it’s just a jar of mayo staring at you! ;)

Thanks for the great weekend, everybody!
