Rain was forecast for the entire valley this weekend! Where is our summer? Anyway, we chose to stick close to home and took a hike (OK, stroll) through the Davis Wetlands. This is one of our favorite spots to get away from it all.
This spot (officially, the Vic Fazio Wildlife Area) is so great because there's never anyone here and it's so close to home. You can see civilization (West Sacramento) in the background. Also, it's so different every time we go. We've seen flocks of thousands of birds here. We've even seen a flock of white swans. And you can wander for miles and miles.
The very best part is the soundtrack. The combination of crickets and birds and whatever else makes you feel like you're really far away. Today it was so green that it reminded Jason of Alaska. This place always reminds me of lazy days playing in the canyon behind our San Diego house when I was a kid.
