Having a patriotic Veteran's Day. I don't remember this when I was a kid, but I think they didn't have school today and there were lots of families on The Mountain doing hikes and picnics.
Perfect weather, but I might get rained out on Saturday.
Wildlife Encounter: three young deer in the empty lot next to the Hole in the Fence.
We went up to Dragonfly Bend and you could see that there was a pretty thick layer of smog over Livermore and Pleasanton, but it was pretty thin over the San Ramon Valley and you could see San Francisco a little.
After the ride we diverted to downtown Danville to see the activities at the Veteran's Hall. Maybe one day they'll ask me to play the National Anthem on my saxophone... that would be quite an honor.

| This is Dragonfly Bend - about 1/4 mile above Juniper and my favorite view. |
