We had a great weekend in Bodega Bay. We ended up renting a small cottage that was right on the ocean. The deck was right over the ocean. It was nice to sit out there and relax. Seeing the occasional seal and sea lion swim by. The sunset was magical. Enjoy the video I shot.
Saturday night we went out looking at Christmas lights. We hit Dove Ct in Orangeville, and there were WAY TO MANY PEOPLE there. Check out some of the Dove Ct lights in our images below.
We had a great Sunday. We started with driving up to Jackson and eating cheeseburgers. We then drove to Grinding Rock State Park in Pine Grove. At the park we started by visiting at musuem, and seeing some of the native american artifacts. We also got to hear about how some of the parks are going to be affected by closures.
After the museum, we walked over to the huge rock that had over 1,000 Grinding Holes that the native americans ground up acorns and seeds in. Some of these dated back 2,000 to 3,000 years.
Then we checked out the village, and took photos of ourselfs in some of the dwellings.
We then hiked around keeping a careful eye out for rattlesnakes. Luckly we did not run across any. To reward ourselves for the days adventures, we went out for ice cream afterward. Yummm. Got to love the weekends.
So far I have been having a great weekend. On Saturday, we ended up going to a company picnic at Gibson Ranch. They had great food. I ended up having Prime Rib. I got to meet a lot of people. We ended up playing bingo trying to win Gift Cards. There was also some raffles. Neither of us won anything though :(
Afterward, I just felt like driving around on back roads. The theme seemed like aircraft as we kept running into them. Some of the things we saw were the back side of the airport. We also saw some private runways and hangers. After the drive, I wanted a milkshake so bad. I went into a hole in the wall and we both had pineapple milkshakes. Yummm. Not the best, but still very good.
Now it is Sunday, and who knows what is in store for today. I love doing stuff unplanned.
Yesterday was such a fun day. We ended up going to the Nevada County Fair. Great food. Checked out the livestock. Watched the small dog races. Walked through the buildings. Met some friends. Hung out with Family.
On October 22, 2009 , Microsoft will be releasing their new Windows 7 Operating System. I am lucky enough to be able to get this software early. Today I insalled the full retail version of Windows 7 on my HP laptop. So far everything is runing smooth and fast.
At first my HP Laserjet printer was not listed. I was able to tell the system to upgrade the printer list, and after a minute is was listed.
So far I like it better than Vista. Time will tell how I really like it.
I have been digitizing some of my old VHS tapes and ran acress the footage of the two times I went skydiving. I went in both 2000 and 2001. Here are the videos.
