Nor have we done the Aircraft Monument hike. Thank you for featuring these in your post.

Glad you're ...Well I totally missed this post! Glad you're safely tucked in for a bit - it's a great time of year to enjoy that mild weather city. I saw a bobcat crossing the highway near Idylwild one time - easily the most beautiful critter I've seen in the wild. And I always enjoy seeing coyotes (even walking down our street here in town). <br />I bet your visit with Pam and John was a hoot!

Both times way too quick for a photo. We've been thinking to stay at Santee for a few days in early March to see family in San Diego. Glad to know you like it there. :-) Laurel (www.ravenandchickadee.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09133248112440273123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5213114113819017671.post-84489530295781984112014-12-04T17:49:12.011-08:002014-12-04T17:49:12.011-08:00Yep, the bobcat was maybe 25 - 30 feet away and tu...Yep, the bobcat was maybe 25 - 30 feet away and turned and ran when we went by.
