Angel Island


When Virginia and I went to SF for our anniversary a few weeks back, we really got only a taste of Angel Island, the island State park in the Bay just off the town of Tiburon. Soooo.... we made a date with Ron and Tresa Skrehot to go back and spend a day hiking and enjoying the panoramic views.

Well, that day was Friday. It was VJ's day off; I took a vacation day; Ron and Tresa were able to get off, and we had a blast. It was cloudy/foggy the first part of our day, so the views, though spectacular, don't translate into photos as well... as you can see in the shot of Tiburon and Belvedere above. But the coolness of the day was perfect for hiking the hills and trails, and the sky cleared the last part of the day for some truly breathtaking views of the bay and the surrounding vistas.



A kind fellow hiker took this shot fairly early on... pretty overcast, with the GGBridge in the background.













This one's a little later in the day... with the wind stirring up our hair.









We'll put some more shots up on Comcast Photo Show, and I'll link to it in a day or two. In the mean time, give thanks to God for all those little moments of joy.
