The ladies of the Sunol Homeowners Association are still impatiently awaiting their cable tv, and insist that they be hooked up before Constantine gets kicked off of American Idol. Thank you for your attention.

Click below to see Sunol's tiny version of Yosemite...

Little Yosemite is a series of waterfalls in a rocky canyon of Sunol Regional Wilderness park. Much of the year, it isn't very exciting. But in spring, while the rest of the park is aflame in the splendor of wildflowers and lush green grass, Little Yosemite is full of crashing, splashing, racing waterfalls, chutes, and deep clear pools.

One of the falls resembles Yellowstone falls in shape more than Yosemite, but either way, it's a alot smaller.

I found myself a nice rock, peeled off my hiking boots, and let my feet dangle in the rushing water of a chute at Little Yosemite. The air was about 72 degrees in the shade, the flowers were blooming, and I wondered if there was anywhere on earth as nice as this one place at this particular moment.

This particular lady seems to have a lot of, um, company. (She is drawing flies, as all fine ladies do).
