4th of July Weekend

We visited Sibley Volcanic Regional Preserve where Erick frequently runs for exercise.  I did some walking on the trails along the side of Round Top that faces the ridge where we live.

Along the trails:

Back at the parking lot, Erick stretches and I admire a Trumpet Vine.

We topped the day off with a party at a new friend's house not far from Montclair Village. There were almost more dogs than people at the gathering (we did not bring our cats).  Caught one of the dogs after his dive into some leftover guacamole - his nose gave him away.

The only fireworks we saw were on video - but from a whole new perspective: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9KZ3jgbbmI
