Point Reyes

While home for the holidays, I had a chance to get out to Point Reyes. It turned out to be a sunny clear day. The Fallarons were visible, and there were a number of birds including a pair of peregrines and a brown booby.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was fun. Practice paid off in the pie and roll department. We also had a wonderful turkey from Ifft’s farm (just outside Pittsburgh).
