Photos Of the California Coastline

Photos From CA Hwy 1 Santa Cruz to San Simeon After a fun evening in Santa Cruz we grabbed some coffee and headed down CA Hwy 1. It was another spectacular day and it held promise for some great coastline photos. We were not disappointed. The CA coastline actually faces north, south and west so depending on the direction faced the scenery can be quite different, from calm blue coves to tumultuous waves crashing on the gigantic rocks that are prevalent along the coast in that area. If you have never driven along the California coastline, you owe it to …

Photos of Marin and Santa Cruz

Photos From Marin County and Santa Cruz Tiburon, Pt Reyes and Santa Cruz We drove a couple hundred miles back to Novato on Saturday so we could have brunch with my aunt and uncle on Sunday. I have not spent enough time with either in far too long, so it was nice having a few hours. The weather kept getting better. I could not believe it. We went for brunch at a nice outdoor cafe on the water in Tiburon. Afterward, we drove to Point Reyes then out by the Marin Headlands to take a few more photos. By the …

Photos From Redwoods National Park

The Drive from Eureka to Crescent City Photos From US Hwy 101 Between Eureka and Crescent City We woke up in Eureka on Saturday morning. My good friend, Cathy, had the day off so she joined Tanya, Buddy and me as we ventured further north to take some more photos. We went up into the Redwoods National Forest then to Crescent City before stopping in Trinidad for an early dinner. It was a fairly overcast day and we did get a little rain, but hey, it is November, and we were pretty far north.

Photos From the Avenue of the Giants

Photos From the California Redwoods Our Drive To Humboldt Redwoods State Park Tanya arrived on Wednesday evening. Thursday morning we decided we wanted to go somewhere. We thought about Utah, but for some reason the weather appeared to be nicer up north, so we decided to head up to see the Redwoods. We spent Thursday evening in Novato so we had nothing but nice scenery all day Friday. The weather was amazing. We ended the day in Eureka where we spent then evening with a dear friend.

Off To See Giants

As I mentioned, Tanya is back in town, so we decided to move to our personal cone of silence, the Charger, and discuss the future. I know that will be misinterpreted. Anyway, we headed north. This photo was taken at our dinner stop in Beullton. We should have gone to Taco Bell instead.

Tanya Returns

So, Tanya came back to LA for the first time since my Movember shave. Her first words? “What did you do with my boyfriend?” Perfect. So, it is settled, the grow back begins December 1 or else we are going to have to redo our logo, t-shirts and business cards. My photo of the day is of Tanya trying to make me resemble the guy she left a few weeks ago.

October 2010 Project 365 Recap

A Picture a Day – Project 365 October 2010 As much as this Project 365 seems more like project than fun at times, it is a handy way of reflecting back and seeing what you have done in the last month. October had too much rain and way too many visits to medical professionals. On the upside, my shoulder is better, I got to spend some time with Tanya in Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks and I was able to raise some money for a good cause.

California Highway 99 – Bakersfield

Photos From California Highway 99 Sandrini’s Italian Restaurant Sunday was a very long day. Even though we started off in Ripon, making all the stops we made turned a four hour drive into a 10 hour drive. We ended up in Bakersfield around 7:00 or 8:00 PM and we were hungry. Every restaurant that Tanya found on her Android was closed or no longer existed. Then we found Sandrinis. When we first arrived we were informed that all they had available was “bar food.” I guess the guy could tell this was not what I wanted to hear and he …

Another One of Those Days

There is really nothing quite as irritating as waking up to problems. Especially problems that spider outwards to cause problems in multiple locations. Sunday was one of those days. Luckily, I have a smart and talented girlfriend and by the end of the day it was just a matter of playing the waiting game. My project 365 photo for day 297 is of me while walking Buddy. Was a nice day. Too bad I had to spend it primarily inside.

California Highway 99 – Hughson

Photos From California Highway 99 Hughson, CA The next stop on our tour of CA Highway 99 was Hughson. To be fair, Hughson is not really on Highway 99, but it was a prospective location for my friends to move to, so we took the six or seven mile detour. On the way, we came across the Resendiz Family Fruit Barn which was decorated for Halloween and had pony rides and tasty treats to give families a nice destination for a Sunday afternoon. I also took the opportunity to introduce Tanya to taco trucks, which have the best carne asada …
