In what is fast becoming a weekly event, Dana and I waved Amir and Hannah off to school and set out to find some good walking in and around Berkeley. Today we headed to Wildcat Canyon, a small regional park just north east of here. Its rolling hills offered a less daunting challenge than the extremes of last week’s trip.
That’s not to say that it wasn’t exciting! As well as some dangerous-looking wildlife (a small snake) the parks police helicopter buzzed us before landing in a nearby field. Then we got lost. Then we found our way again. Not even the fact that we forgot our jelly bean emergency rations slowed us down, as we covered eleven miles up hill and down dale. Impressive!

It's rough country around here.
