Black Friday is the Friday after the Thursday Thanksgiving in the U.S. and means crowds out shopping to nab the big sales.
We skipped all of that and headed up to the local man-made lake to hike the trails that meander through the foothills. It was a gorgeous day and we spent 3 hours out there. Can you spot our shadows in the first photo?

Getting to the vista point, meant going off trail as we couldn't find the trail that lead up to it. We also had to go off trail again after leaving in order to meet up with our original trail.

Nature had many colors!

I took this time-lapse 360 when we were at the top of the vista. From Summer to Winter, the foothills are blanketed with dry, tall grass and oak trees. The river runs through this area and ends at the Dam with the lake.

SHADOWY DELIGHT
Shadows above me, shadows below,
Shadows beside me, wherever I go;
Shadows each morning, shadows at night—
Shadows, O shadows, you’re my delight!
