Morning Treks

706 688
Every morning while on vaca, I've been taking a morning trek.  I found a route that was 1.5 miles long, circular, and goes past several places of my childhood, like Cabrillo Junior High.  Ahh such memories of walking there every morning for three years. :)  Friday morning I was held up at a street light (Bowers and Monroe) and while waiting, I stepped up and down on the curb of some guy's lawn.  A woman drove by with a quick toot and a thumbs up --- thanks for that!  Lifted my spirits for sure!

This morning, because I wanted to get in some photo shots for my daily shoot topics, I drove over toward the new 49er stadium.  They're almost done with it, but you can't get anywhere near it in a car for photos, so I had to park a ways away, and hike the overpass for CalTrain.  Photo from the overpass vantage point.  There was a guard posted at the construction entrance, but he was kind enough to let me step into the drive and get a few shots closer up :)  Guess I didn't seem the kind who was there to cause a ruckus of any sort.  *laughs*


Then I circled the long way around (because I wasn't so sure of the backstreets that have changed so much in 20+ years) and got pictures of the Agnew train stop.  It's closed now, but the little building is still there.  Wish the windows hadn't been boarded up -- I wonder if the benches and decor is still inside?

A good morning trek,
the hills made it challenging
and I used my creativity!
