Bob's Yellow Bird
 |
It was a beautiful fall day and I needed a change
of scenery so I packed some lunch and a Thermos of coffee, put the top down, and
headed for the delta.
This is a nice park I found in Antioch to take my lunch break and stretch my legs. It was nearly deserted, a nice benefit of being retired and able to go places while most other people are at work. |
 |
I took this picture so I wouldn't forget the
name of the park, but it's kind of an unusual name so I decided to keep it.
I wonder if Gentrytown Park is where the local gentry hang out or if Gentrytown is where they live. |
 |
This is a shot of the park looking toward the
mountains. It was really pretty and a crystal clear day.
Notice all the people hanging around. |
 |
I just can't resist taking a picture of my Thunderbird whenever I get a chance. It's so photogenic. |
 |
The interior is no slouch either. Notice my driver's companion sitting in the cup holder. |
 |
This is along Marsh Creek Road which runs between
Concord and Brentwood.
I had never been here before and was awe-struck at how beautiful it is. |
 |
This is also along Marsh Creek Road but looking in
a more northerly direction.
That's Mount Diablo in the distance. |
 |
Another shot taken along Marsh Creek Road.
Everything was so beautiful I hated to leave.
I sure would like to be able to camp under some of those oak trees. |
 |
There sits The Bird where I pulled over to take
the pictures.
It was so quiet and traffic was so scarce I just stood out in the middle of the road. Then it was time to head home. I had a very nice day. |
