John Muir, Eugene O'Neill, Presidio Parks






February 10, 2010
Yesterday the roads were wet in the morning but the afternoon was productive and a draining day. The older truck was not cooperating the best and I had to restart the systems twice, which is a bit of a process. I took some pretty good photos of the truck while we were waiting for the roads to dry.

We were lucky with no rain today and we collected some smaller parks that most people may not know about. Eugne O'Neill requires a reservation and is located in a gated community. Here is some information from the park service website http://www.nps.gov/euon/index.htm

"America's only Nobel Prize winning playwright, Eugene O'Neill, chose to live in Northern California at the climax of his writing career. Isolated from the world and within the walls of his home, O'Neill wrote his final and most memorable plays; The Iceman Cometh, Long Day's Journey Into Night, and A Moon for the Misbegotten."

We've had some long days working out some kinks in the new truck and keeping the old truck running. The scenery is great though and the weather has been nice so I can't complain.
