We took Sunny out onto the lawn in his harness today. He did pretty well! He’s not to be trusted off-leash because we’re pretty sure he’d never come back. He get scared easily.
Big adventure kitten!
The Lower Presidio
On today’s hike we went over to the lower Presidio. The Monterey Presidio is the only still-active presidio in the USA. All the rest have been converted to civilian uses. The bottom part of this presidio is open to the public.
There is a monument to Father Junipero Serra who founded the Spanish mission on the Monterey peninsula and is seen as the father of several towns in the area. There’s also a monument to Commodore Sloat who took Alta California from Mexico.
Huckleberry Hill Hike
We hiked up to Huckleberry Hill which is not too far from our house. It has a few very small views through the trees of the ocean but the main show is all of the trees. Then we found these interesting flowers on our way back down to our house.
