We had planned to go backcountry camping at Point Reyes to celebrate Noam's birthday, but as the weekend approached, I realized with our upcoming Russia trip, there was no way I would be able to camp all weekend and keep my job. In the category of worst wife ever, you may recall that last year we camped at Yosemite for Noam's birthday. I had promised him a birthday dinner of steak but ran out of time to go to the grocery store, and instead served him weenie mac. This year, I managed to outdo myself yet again - instead of camping all weekend, we worked instead! It ended up being an okay birthday, in addition to work we managed to squeeze in breakfast at Krispy Kreme, a shopping trip to the REI garage sale (where Noam got squat and I got new-used skis), and a sunset ride at Henry Coe followed by Sonic Burger. Beautiful light at Henry Coe:
We managed to find all my favorite flowers, woodland shooting star, owl clover, and mouse ears. I think these are hollyhocks:
I forgot Lukka's bridle, so we rigged her up with this fine redneck contraption, basically the bit tied in her mouth. Elegant!
Note to Sonic Burger: you need at least one horse trailer parking spot for car hop service. Watch out for Lukka though. If she manages to steal some onion rings off your tray, don't try to get them back! Very dangerous!
