Romy

Eating a sweet-ass bread bowl of soup in the National Forest for lunch on our way home. We stopped at Erick Schat's Bakkeri (yeah, goofy spelling) and got some day (or 3) old bread for Uuber cheap.

Jenn

We walked the relatively short (1 mile) Discovery loop through the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest. These are the oldest living things on Earth. Yes, on the whole of the Earth, with 4000+ yr old trees.

Romy

Relaxing (and looking confused with a sweet headband) in the Hot Tub hot spring near Mammoth Lakes. After Bodie, we drove south to Mammoth, picked up a heel plate for my skis for cheap, got some subway, and camped out near some hot springs!

Jenn

We visted Bodie State Park, which is a 'preserved' mining town. Most buildings were off limits (due to disrepair or residence by park employees) but this one had some cool old stuff in it.

Jenn

Flash surprise! Camped out near Buckeye Hot Spring eating chili in the car. Mmmm chili. It was cold and rained a bit overnight, but we were nice and cozy in the tent.

Romy

At the dentist's office waiting for a checkup. Because of braces, I have 4 small cavities between my teeth. Awesome.

Jenn & Romy

Face Lick!

Jenn

The vegetable chips we bought at Berkeley Bowl aren't that good. They looked good, but they suck. I'd rather eat potato chips!

Romy

Still working on homework all night!

Romy

Romy going to sleep with his 100% wool felt cowboy hat he got at Loves.

Me with the BC XC skis that we got over the weekend in Truckee.

The winds took down the Menard's tent!!!!!!!!!!!

Romy

Sitting on the bus, on the way back to the car from campus.

Jenn

This morning I saw a flyer posted that said 3 mountain lions were spotted not very far from where we park the car everyday at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab!

Marcel

Me in my awesome insulation outfit. 

Nicole

Whoah! Getting ready for the storm that supposedly will have winds as strong as the one that sank the Edmond Fitzgerald.

Jenn

Sitting in the car while Romy pumps gas.

Romy

Pumping gas in Truckee after getting skis. It was really rainy and windy!

Nicole

Nicole putting insulation into the little side room of the small bedroom. Very dusty!

Marcel

Marcel with the truck.

Jenn

Sitting in an old concrete tub in the ruins of an old abandoned hot spring resort, which is across the river from the new resort (Mono Hot Springs). Enjoying the surrounding Sequoia National Forest, and Romy's foot, at about 7,000 ft elevation.

Romy

Relaxing at Mono Hot Springs, near the John Muir Wilderness in Sequoia National Forest. The water was just slightly above body temperature, but it wasn't very cold outside today.

Nicole

Nicole is taking out some drywall from the Menard's truck we rented for 75 minutes. It was really heavy, and then it started to rain a little!

Marcel

Marcel is driving through the cart corral at Menard's. We met one of the managers who flies in the Menard's plane at DuPage airport.

Jenn

Eating dinner while watching the Trailer Park Boys. Its soooo funny! I am getting sick of the lame pictures we are taking in the evening. I need to carry the camera around with me more.

Romy

Working on the Daewoo in our garage. Finally got it finished up and it will be ready to drive tomorrow.

Romy

Watching the Trailer Park Boys, a really funny Canadian show.

Jenn

Always working on school stuff! When can I relax? Can't wait until the weekend!

Jenn

Going to sleep already!

Romy

Brushing my teeth.

Jenn

Taking a really bad picture with my cell phone after Cake finished their show at the Blue Lamp in Sacramento, CA. The lounge was about the size of our apartment, and they only let about 85 people in! We were so lucky to find out about it and go see them. We were literally 5 feet away from the band for the show! It was so much fun.

Romy

Waiting in line to see Cake play at the Blue Lamp in Sacramento, CA. They played a secret show and only let the people on their e-mail list know about it the night before. The cover was only $10.

Romy

Showing off the slotted brake rotors for the Daewoo!

Jenn

Studying for the fluid mechanics exam that we have Wednesday morning!

Romy

Today I got some water proof pants from REI on super sale!

Jenn

We got some fresh mint sprigs from Berkeley Bowl and I put them in tea.

Jenn & Romy

At Berkeley Bowl getting some booze for a party.

Jenn

I'm so lazy! Relaxing and watching the new season of Weeds!

Romy

Relaxing on the red chair after school.

Romy

I didn't know what picture to take today so I just took a picture of me on the bed before I go to sleep. Its blurry.

Jenn

I have a halo around my head! But its just the ceiling fan. . .

Jenn & Romy

Romy is talking on the phone, and I am jumping into the picture!

Jenn

Grilling steak and potatoes on the Weber! Mmmmmmm.

Romy

Today it was over 90 degrees, so we spent the afternoon outside in the back yard where its cooler. I had to work on my presentation I have to give at Berkeley on Thursday for the Norway people.

Jenn

Along our normal route home, we saw a nice sunset behind the golden gate bridge!

Romy

Our normal parking spot by the tree on the grassy hill near Grizzly Peak Rd.

Jenn

Stretching out my legs before I got to sleep.

Romy

Working late into the night on my presentation which I need to have done before the SINTEF people from Norway come a visit this week! I have a double face.

Romy

Making silly faces!

Jenn

At the Oakland Sears again, returning the tools for fixing the Daewoo which keep breaking! Since they're Craftsman, we can replace them for free.
