It's CABAL day, and Tex just telephoned to remind me of that.

homemade pizza.  See you!

By the way, on Monday, Jan. 20, 2025, the MLK Day Federal holiday, 
I will be driving to Pinnacles National Park (east entrance) in the
morning for a hike in one of the most spectacular and celebrated 
places, probably through the Bear Gulch talus cave and up to Bear Gulch
Reservoir, a moderate hike of about 2.5 miles -- and driving around the
east side of the park to see the sights.  Why that day?  Because it's 
the next "free admission" day for national parks.

I would be glad to bring along up to three passengers.  Call me at
650-283-7902, if interested.  First come, first served.

Distance from West Menlo is 99 miles, about a 2-hour drive.  East
Pinnacles is about 30 miles SE of Hollister, on CA-25.  I'll leave
West Menlo at 8:30am, pick up passengers en-route, and return in the
afternoon.

Rain will _not_ cancel.  Umbrellas are a thing.
