We've had a wonderful time travelling to San Francisco and have seen all kinds of wildlife. Jack rabbits, deer, racoons, bald eagles, pelicans, and a family of prairie dogs.

The scenery and landscape has been spectacular and we all agreed that pictures do not do the mountains justice. They are absolutely amazing and its not hard to believe they are over 10.7 million years old. I can only imagine what they looked like before erosion!

*There is a strange tradition on the Colorado River. When a train passes by, people who are rafting or boating will 'moon' the train. We saw more backsides than we really wanted to!

We're now in our hotel and are going to collapse for the night. Tomorrow we will be visiting the Legion of Honor or Fisherman's Wharf.
