Day 217: Sunrise

Ash and I got up early, took the boys, and drove up a big hill behind our apartment complex to watch the sunrise. It was pretty cool.

Day 216: Bay Bridge

After dropping Aunt Rosie and Granny off at the airport, Ashley and I stopped on Treasure Island (mostly because of the name) and I took this photo of the Bay Bridge.

Day 215: Pacific Lighthouse

Granny, Ashley, Aunt Rosie, and I drove down coastal highway 1. The scenery was spectacular. We stopped at Pigeon Lighthouse and I took this photo. I did not alter the photo at all. This is how it came off the camera. I think it might be one of the most amazing photos I've ever taken.

Day 214: More Redwoods

Granny and Aunt Rosie flew in a for a couple days to visit. After picking them up at SFO, we drove down the crooked mile (which was a little scary) and across the Golden Gate Bridge. Then we drove up to Muir Woods National Monument so that Granny could see the redwoods.

Day 213: Open Window

It was a beautiful day again. After our long walk, I opened the window to let in some fresh air.

Day 212: The Condo

I said I was going to post pictures of the condo (apartment, whatever), but haven't really posted much. So, here is an outside view of the condo. That's our front porch with a slider (where the big spider was). Behind the stairs (which go upstairs to the unit above us), is our door. The front porch is big, but we don't use it for two reasons: 1) it's open to the front entrance area, so we can't let the dogs out there because they'd escape, and 2) the woman who lives above us is inconsiderate when it comes to watering her plants. We always know when she waters the jungle (seriously, not only does she have plants up there, but she also has a couple trees and bushes) because our porch ends up soaked.

Day 211: The Hill

This is the hill outside the apartment complex that Toby, Rodney, and I climb at least once a day (sometimes twice). I know you can't tell in this picture, but it's a pretty good hike. If we walked straight up without stopping (which isn't possible for the boys--there things to pee on after all), I would probably be a little winded. When we do the hill twice, Toby is significantly slower on the second time up. ":)
