California Pictures

We had a long day of travel yesterday finally pulling in at the farm around 7:00pm. So good to be home. Rhoda and Karin were waiting for us and we really enjoyed visiting with them. Once they left we were too tired to unpack, it was all we could do to climb into our very comfortable bed. At 2:00am my cell phone went off and again at 5:00am. Both were junk texts. Tonight the phone will be left in the other room.
As long as we were up a pot of coffee was started and the pictures taken off the camera for posting.
This is the indoor atrium of our hotel with it's many fish ponds, fountains and meandering streams that connect the fish ponds. The picture was taken as we walked out of our room up on the 4th floor looking down.

zooming in the camera even catches a fish in one of the ponds, again this was taken from the 4th floor looking down. Not a bad camera.

Saturday morning we met up with one of Barbara's boys, Timothy and one of Becky's boys, Jonathan at the Griffith Observatory.
We had quite a hike up to the observatory, the views of the hills were interesting and the picture below was taken as we were hiking. It was a good excuse to stop and catch our breath.

At the top of the hill was the Griffith Observatory, well worth the hike.

Jonathan and mom as we were walking around the outside of the observatory. The city is in the background but with the smog of Los Angeles it is blurry.

We headed indoors for the planetarium show. This was snapped before the show started, left to right Spark, Timothy, Jonathan and mom.

A man offered to take our picture as a group.

and we had to zoom in on the Hollywood sign, just in case it is hard to see in the picture above with all the people standing in the way.

The last picture taken on the camera was taken in the church before we all headed home. Left to right is: Daniella, Peter, Timothy, Michelle, Jonathan and mom.

Today will be busy with Berean Prison Ministry work in the morning and a doctors visit in the afternoon to see if I passed the many tests taken before the hip surgery.
