Viewing Album:  ValleyRails: Winter 2006-3 December 2006
 
By:D-F Strong-Baker
Dates:12/3/2006 - 12/3/2006
Album Info:Well, Judith and I were back at it again, and we went to the Bay Area, we followed the Martinez Sub, and part of the Stockton (I think Stockton) to Martinez/Franklin Canyon...We ended in Jack London Square, where we snuck over to the coach yard to get a pic or two, but the wouldnt let us, so we snuck in about six shots anyway. That was fun, and oh, yeah, BART! Anyway, next trip is planned for the North Valley, and Chico, my hometown and stomping ground! Well thanks for looking. I did not add nearly as much photos to this album, because I wanted to keep the really good ones for me and my personal collection...I do like to share, but not that much, I will also be pruning some photos from my other albums...I hope you still like my photography.
