Fun Hike

Yesterday morning Virginia and I got out for a trek over the hill to Contra Loma Park before it got too hot. It was really pleasant, and, as I've written here before, this outing is one of our favorites. We took a bit of a detour into an area I used to run but where VJ had not been before. The route traverses an area where cows often graze and runs alongside the golf course. At one point you climb a short but fairly steep hill. At the top there's a pretty good view that's a bit different from other spots around the park.

The first two below are looking out toward the city. If you look close enough you can see the river in the 2nd one. The third shot is looking back toward the golf course and the little lake on that property.





It's supposed to cool off a lot this week, making such outings even more pleasant!! :-)
