Sight Seeing

Finally have access on the work laptop : )

Busy Week. Mom was visiting and we toured the bay area. 3 days of hiking, one day of SF landmarks. And two days of work makes for a full week. Have pictures in the link below.

Took a pontoon boat tour of the Elkhorn Slough down by Monteray Bay. Saw 190+ Harbour Seals, 70+ Sea Otters, & many sea/shore birds. Up in Point Reyes, we saw a Bobcat. At Pinnacles (so far my favorite place) we saw: wild turkey, wild boar, hummingbird, deer, jackrabbits, frogs. Point Lobos had harbour seals & Sea lions as well as tame squirrels : )

The Winchester Rifle Mansion was built by Sara Winchester. She was sort of crazy and keep adding on to the house her whole life. It has 160 rooms, 40 bedrooms, 13 bathrooms, 2 kitchens, and around 25,000 sqft. Which was a lot for 1920 (aprox) when she died.
