San Diego Festival of Sails (September 3, 2011) San Diego, California USA
We spent the day in San Diego thoroughly enjoying the Festival of Sails.
This man is preparing the gorgeous red sails for our 3 hour journey on the water.
This is a view from where my husband and I were sitting on the 'American Pride.'
The sails are going up one by one!
We had a great time with a 'cannon battle' against this ship!
Downtown San Diego is in the background.
A smaller sailboat also graces lovely red sails!
Bringing down the sails!
I think it takes very brave people to be WAY up there!

This is a wonderful beach to spend the day when the water is calm.
Some people ventured down to get a closer look while my husband and I were walking along the bluff above.
Sea arches, caves and lava tubes are fun to explore in this area of southeastern Maui.
Watching the water hit the rocks was very entertaining!

Watery Wednesday, Outdoor Wednesday / Convict Lake, Eastern Sierras, California USA
Click on photos to enlarge!
This is Convict Lake in the Eastern Sierras of California USA.
My husband and I spent 5 days in this mountain region visiting many of the beautiful lakes, often called the Mammoth Lakes Region.
This is a deep blue lake loved by anglers, campers and hikers alike.
There is a 2 mile loop trail that circles the entire lake.
We took the trail in the early morning of our first day here.
The colors of mid-October were breath-taking.
The weather was perfect (on this day)...temperatures in the 60's during the day and the low 40's at night,
perfect for a day of hiking trails which began at Convict Lake.
This lake is known for its clear and deep blue water.
The trail led us through some wonderful aspen and cottonwood groves in glorious color.
The leaves were beginning to fall so I think the trees are bare by now, two weeks later.
Only a few people were on the water.
I couldn't resist photographing these branches hanging over the water.
A little farther down the trail I spotted these three men enjoying themselves.
They were all in their own worlds...I didn't hear any conversation between them.
...and a little splash of red just for my camera!
That was our morning at Convict Lake before moving on to another trail that led us to Rainbow Falls beyond Devil's Post Pile...another glorious 3 miles.

This is Hot Creek just south of Mammoth Village in the eastern Sierras of California USA.
The creek runs for many miles and alternates from cool water to scalding hot.
People used to enjoy sitting in the hot water (including myself) but, due to increased geothermal activity, entering the creek is not allowed, hopefully temporarily.
