Moutain of the Devil?

It's true... We went to Mt Diablo. It was actually very beautiful. It's one of the highest places in the bay are, and we were able to see in all directions once we got up to the top. When you're driving up and up and up do you ever get frustrated because you're not there yet and you just keep winding up and up? And on top of that the trees sometimes block the sun and sometimes don't so you're constantly going in and out of shade, and even with sunglasses it still bothers you? And then you start to really get annoyed? I think that's how I get and bless Jon's heart... he takes my annoying remarks. With about ten minutes to get to the top I decided to shut my trap and close my eyes and take a little nap. But we made it!



There's a little telescope you can put your money in and see things out in the wide expanse of what you think is nothing... There was a man who did that shouts out, "I see someone in their pool." I started chuckling at the fact that he didn't look at the bay, or the valley, or the windmills. He honed in on some poor creature that didn't even know they could be seen. He turns to me and says, "you wanna see?" Wtih my curious mind I took a peek and sure enough someone was swimming in their pool (clothed with appropriate swim attire thankfully).

Then we went down a little and climbed up a huge rock that was calling our names. It was awesome. It was the first weekend that we actually went outside to do something.
