One day nearer spring
my faithful companion and i set off down the forested trail in search of our elusive photo, he pauses for a moment to lighten his load:


once we have emerged from the woods we scour the banks of the tidal river and he bravely volunteers to swim and search its depths:


but the gold we seek was found beneath the trees, two beautiful little mushroom friends, our mission for today was a success:

it doesn't suck.

those hills are 4 blocks away. that whole area is a park and you can walk up the hills on trails. the views from the top (or as far as i've gotten) are gorgeous. i'm considering making the hike so i can take a picture for you guys this month

the ocean is on the other side of that mountain range. about a 45 minute drive

I WAS posting photos in the art thread, but most people were posting drawings and such.

My phone died twice while writing a big post about this and it didn't save either time so I'll keep it brief :

San Diego is rad and redeemed California in my eyes


Hung out with a friend at the beach (sunset cliffs) and smoked joints all day. Climbed down some cliffs to get there. Walked around Ocean Beach and got lunch.

In a cool airbnb private room with 2 nerdy reddit folks and it was cheaper than any hostel I've looked at so I think I'm done with hostels.

Had some cataclysmic nightmares with Amtrak ticket agents in the stations. One ripped my pass, another told me that meant the pass was void and tried to take it away from me.

Argued with a manager and got to keep the pass then they told me it wasn't valid for travel to/from San Diego effectively trying to strand me here.

Called their support line and got it all sorted out along with an upgrade to business class for my 38 hour long trip to Seattle up the PCH starting at 6am tomorrow

Here comes
the Squirtle Squad!
The picture I took for yesterday got saved as a raw .NEF file and I'd have to convert it to .jpg in order to upload it and I don't want to do that right now, so have a picture I took in Mexico last year:

OK, let's see if I can get Imgur working, and get myself motivated to actually participate.

I didn't read this thread until Tuesday, but luckily I had taken a picture on Monday anyway.




On Tuesdays, I usually go downtown to meet a friend for conversation, etc.




But most of the time that I'm not at work, I stay home with the dogs. That doesn't mean I can't trek to water (it's just a shorter trek, and there's not as much water as some of you have). This little lake is on part of my yard. I've named it Veronica. Sadly, it's been pretty hot and low on rain so the water's stagnant and algae grows furiously.




I'm hoping I'll be able to keep up with the rest of you!
