All's well in the world
The boy left early for his Saturday gig, then off to a friends sleep-over birthday in wine country. I had to work Sunday, so I headed for the hills with a good friend bright and early. It was pretty cloudy down in the city, but clear and warm in the mountains. The creek was ours for a couple of hours, and then others started trickling in, and taking their places on the basking rocks. Quite an idyllic scene.
We hiked down to the point where the creek meets another (Alder). Three or four large pools spill into each other, and we braved the chilly water, wading thru the fish and aquatic life. Birds and a few croaking frogs filling the air with their chirping.
The sun was just fantastic, and we both enjoyed time sprawled on the rocks like basking sea lions.
Back home in the early evening, a much enjoyed shower to remove the accumulated grime of a sweaty sunny day, then took myself to dinner at the corner sushi place. Feeling adventurous I ordered sashimi - yellowtail and Spanish mackerel. Yum.
Rented "Closer" - which is another spectacular performance by Natalie Portman, then to bed at 09:30 PM - a very sleepy, and sated, boy.
