I went up to the new Ridge Trail in Jack London State Park today. I hiked to the park since I was too cheap to pay for parking, and then hiked up to the Ridge trailhead, and from there it was a 3-4 mile loop on a brand new trail. The trip was great – I hadn’t hiked in a little while, and I got a few good pictures.
All together it was about a 12 mile hike. I even ran into Mr. Knight – my 9th grade science teacher. He hasn’t changed a bit. I’m a little sore after the hike since it’s been a while and there was so much uphill, but I’ll work it out with some stretches. Tonight Betty Jane is coming over to help us finish up some carnitas. I’ve been on a Mexican food kick since I heard there is only one decent Mexican food restaurant in Japan, and it’s all the way over in Tokyo. That’s pretty far to go for a taco. I’m smuggling in some mexican hot sauce with me. Might be tasty on sashimi.
