Edward rips up.

The bowling ally in Santa Cruz is down by the wharf so Edward wanted to go after the Woodies.  We got there set up and 10 minutrs later the guy bowling next to us came up to me and asked "does he do this always". Check out the start of the game, I laughed, but said yes he is very good, then enjoyed watching Edwards best game to date. 



Woodies on the Wharf

June is fancy car month in Santa Cruz and Edward loves it.  Yesterday we went to Woodies on the Wharf.  Edward took his video camera and had a wonderful time.  It is good for us to get some pleasant time together,  he was a blast yesterday

Big Basin Hike June 2012

Headed out to Big Basin this morning for a nice long walk in the woods.  The plan was Sunset Trail to Golden Falls, then Silver Falls, and finally Berry Creek Falls.  Returning to the ranger station via Skyline to the Sea Trail.  Renate, Teddy and I did this with some friends of mine 15 years ago.  It was a beautiful day with temps in the 50s when I left and 65 when I got back 5 hours later.  The falls are doing ok for June, not real full.  Elda here are the numbers  5hours, 22minutes,  11.5 miles, 18,476 steps, and the biggy 1,367 calories burned. No people or dog pictures, family did not want to go this far and Revel who is recovering from a flare-up of arthritis in his right front leg is not allowed in State Parks.

Capitol Car Show


Edward and I spent a very nice afternoon checking out the cars at the Capitola car show last Saturday.  Edward was very surprised when i told him that when i learned to drive this is what my Dad and I shared. I think gas was $0.33 a gallon.
