The sun was out nicely as I got it going today. So what to do?
Trail work
I rode the quad runner up into the redwood forest to the waterfall and did some trail work for a couple hours until my back said it had enough.
This is the view of the forest from the waterfall.
Quad ride
My back didn’t last too long today, so I went for a ride in the forest up this road.
I was just riding around looking at stuff. I rode down this trail.
And out this ridge where I wanted to check an area out.
Walk in the forest
I parked the quad and walked through the forest here having a look.
There wasn’t much of a trail where I walked but it was still fairly easy going.
Resting spot
I rested a bit under these redwood trees before continuing on for a bit and then turning around and heading back to the quad runner.
Tree down
I was clipping along good when I ran into this downed tree across the road that was a bit too big for me to move, but I did have a rope with me, so.
I hooked up the rope and pulled the tree out of the way enough for me to pass.
Hill view spot
From there I headed up to the Guerneville Overlook where I sat on a log for a bit just enjoying the sunshine.
Headed home
And then I was off down this ridge road headed towards home.
On the way I stopped to throw this brush off the road, although my back was complaining a bit.
Darn hawk
Once home I sat with the chickens until it was time to go in for the day. That hawk has been still harassing the chickens and keeping them on their toes watching for it. They are hanging together here as they are weary of the hawk.
That was a pretty good day messing around in the forest.
That forest is pretty darn thick in places!
Interesting pictures ofit from different angles.
I do love your overlook spot. I’d love to sit in a lounge chair with a good book on a sunny day. :)
Darn hawk, is right! Stay away from those chickens!

Header Pictures
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
