October 5th

Today I decided to take a short drive to a local park. I had read that at the top there were some great views. I got there, and perhaps it's true. But, only if you hike up this big hill. I wasn't in the mood for a hike. So, I went to another part of the park called Morrison Pond. This is along the Sweetwater River, which isn't exactly full of water at this time of year, so I kind of expected a dried up puddle. I was surprised-it's a real pond. almost a lake by Southern California standards.

Since this is so close I'm going to go at different times of the year to see how it changes. Apparently it's also a horse park, so maybe I'll go on weekends and see if I can get some good horse pictures too.
