The weekend

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Started off with our company’s (1 neice and 2 nephews) adventure by walking the Golden Gate. Windy as normal and chilly with a bit of marine layer mixed with smoke from all the fires. We could make out Alcatraz and parts of the city. Then back home and off to the sold-out Athletics/Giants game. The gang left in the 8th as all were tired and we had to get up at 4:30 the next day.

Sunday we were off to American Whitewater Expeditions and the American River. It was totally great!
Here it comes!

 

 

Had a great breakfast and then off to the river.

Driving back we spotted a 4wd Sportsmobile in all the traffic returning from the mountains. I need to put some SMB decals back on ours. The area we were in was smoke free not like home where today the Sprinter is sprinkled in ashes!
