Definitely. There are some awesome trials/hikes too, if you like walkabouts.

I've done some 'research' and have some spring hikes planned only draw back is it's about a three hour drive to get over there and my 'shooting partner' (my daughter is NOT an early morning person so we have to wait for the days to be longer...

The trials should be drier by then too. I went in August, and there were still quite a bit of flowers and Alamere Fall was still spectacular. It has been a drier year in general though.I hope you have a good time : )

Good to know! And yes, this year has been much drier I'm still hoping we'll get more...

I love the composition of this shot, it's just right. It would be interesting to be there at sunrise or sunset, I bet it would be amazing.

sunset would be the right direction - we hoped for it this evening, but the fog got there too soon ):

kayaksailor In reply to sebastopolgoose [2011-08-29 02:26:05 +0000 UTC]

this was our first time here - don't know why it took us so long, it won't be the last! I read about the falls but didn't have a chance to do both this trip It's a 3 1/2 hour drive to the lighthouse and it took us over 5, lol, with all of our stops...we'll have to get started earlier in the day to add a day hike in too

When I was in college good friends of mine lived in Sebastopol so I always think of them when I see your dA name - what is the story?

ah - that makes sense have to say I don't miss that kind of commute! my daughter does it now getting to the University so she tries to plan her schedule for classes that start after the masses are already on the road (plus she is NOT an early bird!)

Wish I had some words of enlightenment or encouragement for you but we'd be in the same position if we hadn't made such major changes 31/2 years ago and even those didn't completely make for "all rainbows and unicorns"...

(by the way- how is your wife doing?)

My wife is doing great.. she doesn't have a job anymore but shes gettting unemployment so there's some income anyway... right now I'm pretty much in the situation where I can get on medicare in 2 years.. well really 1 1/2 but shes a year younger.. so when we both get that.. I will consider packing it in..so hard to figure.. but I am so tired of the daily grind...oh well..maybe lotto will pull me out !

kayaksailor In reply to davincipoppalag [2011-09-02 21:31:37 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad to hear she's all well, or at least doing great! Not having a job is challenging - my husband was unemployed for over a year...thank goodness for the unemployment. He was rear-ended a few months ago which has wrecked havoc with his fused neck (resulting from a head-on with a drunk 12 years ago) and that is making him not sure if he can continue his current job but we'll see...at least this time the driver was working AND the company is well insured - unlike the drunk driver who only had CA minimum...

the daily grind with a long commute is an even worse scenario...

Yea.. that must be tough for your husband.. hard enough to work when you feel ok...
