Manuel Perez took this photo while in Palm Springs, California during the week of his vacation. He traveled to the top of Mt. San Jacinto with his wife using the Palm Springs Aerial Tram. The tram is amazing because it takes you from the bottom of the valley (Valley Station) which is 2,643ft to the top (Mountain Station) which is 8,516ft in about 10 minutes. The ride is a little creepy especially when you come to a tower. This is a photo from within the car looking up at one of the towers along the way.
Manuel Perez was in Palm Springs celebrating his and his wife’s twelve year anniversary. Upon arriving at the top of the mountain his wife and him went on a hike down the hill to see some of the snow play activities. It is amazing how the Tram takes you from the desert weather which is about 60-85 degrees to the top which has weather that is about 20-60 degree difference. Below is a photo of the snow play area.

This is a photo of a flower that is in the middle of the gardens next to the mission in San Juan Bautista, California. I went on the field trip with my daughter to view the mission. It had been more years than I can remember since the last time I have been there. Very interesting place and lots of history.

This is a photo that I took of “The Passion Flower”. I took this photo while I was visiting San Juan Bautista, California and saw this beautiful flower. I didn’t know the name of it until my wife told me what it was called. Very beautiful name and very beautiful flower. As you can tell it gets its name from Jesus Christ. Amazing!

This is a photo of Yosemite Falls. My family and I went up there a couple of years back while there was still snow up there. There wasn’t too much water coming off the falls but it sure was beautiful.

Recently, I got the chance to visit San Juan Bautista. I must say it is a piece of work. Not very much to do but very nice stuff to see. I went one time when I was a little kid but I never can recall actually going. The place was full of kids from a bunch of school field trips that were going on. If you are planning on going I would suggest you call ahead and see when is their time with the least amount of people.

This is a view from the top of Big Oak Road looking down along the Merced River. I took this picture while visiting Yosemite National Park. I snapped this photo with my Canon Digital Rebel XT.

This is a photo of Vernal Falls in Yosemite National Park in California. I took this photo around the late winter and the water coming off the falls was very little. I love the whole light that is there though. I snapped this photo with my Minolta Dimage 5.

This is a photo of the beach in California. This photo was taken just as we got off of an LCAC (or Hovercraft). We had been out at sea for some time now and we were doing an exercise where we attacked the beach. This was just on the coast of Camp Pendleton.

This is a photo from inside of China Town looking down into the rest of San Francisco. I snapped this photo with my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT and my Canon 28-135mm lens. China Town is very strange. Not much to do around there unless you are aware of the Asian culture or if you are hungry.

While visiting the Golden Gate Park I came across this huge antenna that was ruining the scenery. Anyone know what it is and what is its purpose? I know that it is an antenna of some kind but why did they put it right in the middle of this beautiful area and not on top of some building? I snapped this photo with my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT using my Canon 28-135mm lens from the lake in the park. Anyone know anything about this thing I would love to hear about it.
