My New Year’s tradition is walking up the Oakvale Road overpass in Walnut Creek to get a good view of my hometown and beyond. I posted similar pics the past two years, and, given the uncertainty I have going into this year, it’s fitting that it’s cloudy today.

I did this a year ago, and, if time/weather permits, this may become a New Year’s tradition! And after all the rain we’ve had, oh how I miss a clear, sunny sky.
The Day-Trip: Santa Cruz

I was supposed to post this yesterday. Then my place got some snow–something I haven’t seen up close in years—and I got fascinated, to say the least.
Another weekend has begun for many, and while I have to wait till Sunday night for my weekend to start, I can always look back at how I spent last weekend. If you’ve been following me on my Twitter or Instagram, you’d know I spent President’s Day weekend in the stunning seaside city that is Santa Cruz. I shared a few pics there, but I got plenty more here after the jump.
Snow!


Who needs to drive up to Tahoe when I can hike up a hill near home and see snow?
