November 2007


I continued the annual tradition of going to South Florida for the week of Thanksgiving.  Although the weather in Northern California is excellent, by late November it's a bit cool and I look forward to some warm sunshine.  After some scurrying around to sort out Delta Airlines messing up my flights, I arrived early in the day on Saturday following the red eye flight.

The week was spent visiting with the family, playing with the dog, and seeing some long time friends.  While Florida doesn't have nearly the photographic opportunities of California, there was a nice Japanese garden (Morikami) where I took some shots.  The rest of the photos were of the family.  A link to the album is below:

A hike was organized by Mid-Peninsula Open Space District at the Los Trancos preserve off of Page Mill Road.  The guided hike showed where the San Andreas fault lies and its impact on local geology.  After a rainy evening, the day was nice and sunny, although a bit breezy at times.  Here are the photos from the hike:
