TRAVEL: The Pinnacles National Monument

Saturday, September 1, 2012 –  
Driving Home from Palo Alto
Stopped off at Pinnacles National Monument, impromptu while trying to avoid traffic on 101 and the boredom of the I5.  A wonderful discovery - a beautiful lush California chaparral oak woodland with mixed pines and eroded boulders and needle mountain formations.  I saw birdlife immediately while we were driving and there’s a stream, dry now, but promising run-off in the springtime.  
I was enchanted with the place and we will go back.
