On Monday, Linda and I decided to take a leisurely ride through Virginia
City, and over to Ft. Churchill State Historic Park. It was a really nice ride
and we enjoyed seeing the ruins of Ft. Churchill and the surrounding area
quite a bit. Here are a few photos from the spot. Someday, I will own a
real ultra wide angle lens...someday....
Oh how I longed for this sign to come true...
While the "plan" I had didn't really pan out, we got to see a lot of new territory and scenery.
We ate lunch here at this park on the river.
...and Tuna loves it.
On Saturday we went back to the spot we went to a few weeks prior.
The gate was open and we drove a lot farther in and hiked for a bit.
I think I found a new favorite camping spot and it is under 2 hours
from home!!
I've been behind on my LJ posting for a bit now so I decided to play catch up today.
My brother and I went back to the carp hole and fished for a bit. Here are a couple
of pics. Also, some pics of the various birds that inhabit our back yard...
So, for Linda's b-day we did what we usually do, head over to the Bay and spend the
weekend relaxing. Friday night we had Blow Fish and met up with Brandy and Scott,
which was uber cool, and I gorged on sushi and Hitochino Nest Beer.
Here are 20 random photos from the weekend...

This morning we got off to a late start but still decided to head out and enjoy the uber nice weather.
The goal was to get some excercise, fresh air, sun, and with any luck, locate a Sierra-Nevada Ensatina
and a Northern Rubber Boa. Well, we struck out on the rubber boa, but did locate a pretty little Sierra-
Nevada Ensatina, my first one ever. XD
We also saw some cool inverts, including these two enormous pedes...
