Hiking in Briones National Park

I've been meaning to share more pics with everyone, so now seems like a perfect time since I got ahold of a friends digital camera (thanks Mike).


Here is the road leading in to a trail that follows the creek for awhile, from the Alhambra staging area.











Here is me near the Briones peak! I'm about 50 feet of elevation away.


The camera was set to place a time/date stamp on the bottom right corner of each pic. I didn't know the camera was set up to do this. Not only was the date wrong, but it looked ugly. So, I photoshopped them to remove the stamp. I was tempted to add some more hair, but I resisted.

The top pic's edit is hardly noticeable, but I got tired of doctoring and did a rush job on the photo of me.

Hiking has been fun, and great excercise. It's a whole heck of alot easier to eat well and feel good when I'm active often. My goal is to hike at least 3 times during the week and once on the weekend. I was one hike short last week, but this upcoming week I'll be right on track.




AS you can see, in this last pic I was too lazy to edit the stamp out. Ignore the date, it was taken today. I think this is one of my favorites...
