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.

John Mayer + Jon and Jenn = Great times.


When it comes to music we both love to listen to it. When it comes to favorites, we actually enjoy listening to each others. I love Coldplay. Jennifer loves John Mayer. Last summer we saw Coldplay and it was great. A couple months ago we saw that John Mayer would be coming to San Jose. I knew that most likely, we'd be going. Even though nothing had been decided up until a couple days before the concert, I still kinda always knew we'd be going. So, with a little research and some help from craigslist, we were able to get our hands on some great seats: upper level, close to the isle, straight on view and 12 rows from the gentlemen smoking the illegal substance. I mean, at least he wasn't blowing those flumes of 'smoke' right down our throats, right? =) After some prompting from a courageous-concerned audience member, security was warned. Don't worry though, after the authorities were made-aware, they approached the culprit and he was quickly given a warning...that if he were to CONTINUE to smoke that illegal substance, that he would quickly escorted out. Yeah, they showed him!

In the end, it was a great show. And besides the pound of licorice that we both ate, we were both feelings pretty good when it was all said and done.
