Rocky Point.....a nice restaurant....and a very serene setting.  Not crowded like other places along the coast.
















and these little piggies went wee-wee-wee all the way home...

Packed up on the 4th.....headed back home.  To the big valley and those triple digit temps  :(







Stopped at Eagles Nest HD on the way through Stockton........saw this trike and trailer.  I'm not really into flames but these were done pretty nice.  He made the trailer out of the body of an old servi-car trike.







I hope everybody enjoyed the ride......we sure did and lookin forward to the next one! :2vrolijk_21:

We have been shortchanged.

Hills and Curves next 63 miles

Curves next 74 miles

We want a redo.
Or maybe a revisit.
Terrie, JC was holding back on us.

JC...your pics seem to have a bit more "pop" to them...change some settings?  Looks great...beautiful places.

Yes, thanks to you and Jock! :2vrolijk_21:   But that doesn't account for the hundreds that got deleated...... :huepfenlol2: :huepfenlol2:

Just playing with the settings like you suggested Terry.......sometimes taking the same picture three or four times on different settings and then viewing them right away.  Just kind of stumblin along but I'm having fun with it.....of course Terrie gets a little short on patience with me and the camera. :nixweiss:

Beautiful shots!!  I assume that plant life in the water is Kelp?

Yes, many different kinds (according to the Monterey Bay Acquarium).

Terry, I really owe a huge thank you to you and to Jock.  I really did pay attention to a couple of the things you two suggested.

Oh, Jock, I do have a "multicoated filter" over my lens now.  Couldn't remember what you suggested other than it be coasted.  You said to spend the $ and get a good one.....it was $25.....is that the one?

No lens hood.  I mean I have one but it will not fit in the limited space in my tour pack and I'm not ready to give up my ice chest......a man's got priorities ya know. ;D  The same reason I haven't been bringing my long lens but there were sure times on this trip that I wished I'd had it......gonna have to figure something out. :nixweiss:

No way in hell could we cram all of Nor Cal in one week.......no way, no how.  Just have to come out again. :2vrolijk_21:

WoW! Great pictures.
Gotta love Monterey and Carmel. One of the best meals I ever had was at a little place in Carmel...need to look up the name.

Carmel is utopia for Sheila and I...

We spent our 10th, 15th and 20th anniversary in Carmel...  Nice living takes place there...   :) :2vrolijk_21:

DAMN JC!  One word says it all WOW!  You have quite the eye and with the new settings...Well...WOW!

I am pleased to read that you are enjoying the new options and I must say they have made quite the difference and have allowed that camera to come alive with your eye!

Only one request...you are killing me with the areas you are traveling...I can not afford to live there so I guess I must travel via your photos...

Thanks for sharing my friend and keep 'em up!

AMAZING!  What an area to have in your backyard!

Do you use VPN or some sort of firewall?  If so that could prevent the link...
