<div>Rain, rain, lots of rain -- good for the water table.
National Weather<br>
Service says it'll probably be clearing by Saturday
afternoon, but we'll<br>
probably be snug and warm inside. Cooking will include
stirfry, and<br>
other items to be determined.<br>

See you there.<br>

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

I would be glad to bring along up to three passengers. Call
me at<br>
650-283-7902, if interested. First come, first served.<br>
<br>
Distance from West Menlo is 99 miles, about a 2-hour drive.
East<br>
Pinnacles is about 30 miles SE of Hollister, on CA-25. I'll
leave<br>
West Menlo at 8:30am, pick up passengers en-route, and
return in the<br>
afternoon.<br>
<br>
Rain will _not_ cancel. Umbrellas are a thing.<br>
<br>
<br>
