62.06 California: Morro Bay: Valencia Hike through a form of Eden.

We happened to see an officer of the law fine this offender 3 worms and a feather-weight of birdseed. The real issue for the authorities appears to be collection of the fine. These type of offenders are similar to those who live 'on the road', irregular collection of mail. Fortunately, some of the finest bureaucrats are focused on the issue, a source of comfort to us. We did mention to the officer that the offender should be granted a reprieve as the bird did have a disability—apparently, a deformed left-wing.
While each specie is free to follow their own paths, we still believe it's rude to stare and portray an unfriendly attitude. From humans we can understand that demeanor, reluctantly, but we expect more from reptiles. Why Jen began singing 'Snake, rattle and roll' is beyond me but then again, she has a nice voice. Funnily enough, so much is beyond my ken these days, I feel I'm living in a strange world. Should I be able to sing better, I could relate to 'Fly me to the Moon', undertaking a full emigration. Then again, a US Congresswoman says it's not feasible because the moon comprises gases only. She should be 'Armstronged' for that or perhaps, strong-armed out of congress. The problem with that tactic should they get rid of her: the IQ of the esteemed body will reach new heights. The result: It will become even more difficult to attract candidates who qualify.  

Who knows what 'to morro' will bring but 'to day' is very attractive in-and-of-itself.
Now we know 'Where All the Flowers Have Gone'...to mountain tops, everyone. (Be grateful you haven't heard me sing it.)
I find this position, the view and 'even' Jenni, an incredible sight. Mesmerizing would not be an exaggeration.
There was a bit of a gap between us. When Jenni reached the top, she turned around and ran down to collect her hiking pole. Hence, it appears I got a little ahead of her when in fact, I was behind although appear ahead. Got that! (She's toward the bottom of photo.)
"We've looked at clouds from both sides now." Please feel free to sing along. 

We think that's Valencia Peak on the horizon. Picture taken in a reciprocal position during some rock-hopping the day before. (Before the Morro).
Valencia from Hazard Peak trail, 2 days later.
A healthy stride along the numerous trails.
Let's head home, this time Jen leads.

Cheers, 

Jenni and Jeffrey
