A Day with Nature and Art

On the first day of the Labor Day weekend, we joined the crowd in the Golden Gate Park and visited the California Academy of Science.

We arrived there at around noon and it was already very crowded in almost every corner of the park. We were able to find the farthest parking spot eventually. But it was well worth the walk! The Rain Forest structure was so cool. There were so many different interesting creatures with exotic colors, and birds and butterflies flying around the visitors. It was a very unique experience. The Extreme Mammals special exhibit, on the other hand, was a bit disappointing, especially compared to the Rain Forest.

We then swung by De Young Museum right across California Academy of Science. It has a very special architecture. We'll definitely go back to visit!

1st Annual Monte Scramble Golf Tourney 2010

It was a late warm August day. A group of Monte dads came out to compete and enjoyed an awesome day of golf at Shoreline Golf Links, while raising funds for the kids. Although I did not get to witness or capture the "amazing shots for birdies, eagles or bogies", nor the "Closest to the Pin" shots, I could tell that all the dads had a fun day and this was a great event put together by the hosts. Hats off to Jimmy, Ted, Mike A., Mike D. and Paul!

I also put together a slideshow at the end of this blog. Please remember to check it out, and leave me comments!
