SMOAC: Indian Rock (January 2013)

For this SMOAC, we gathered up Clara's friend Eloise, climbed Indian Rock, and enjoyed ice cream on Solano.

SMOAC: Alcatraz (January 2013)

Our SMOAC to Alcatra actually took two days. We forgot to account for how popular the island is, and didn't get reservations on our first day. Luckily, we were able to get reservations for the next day, and so we repeated our adventure. We had a nice time taking BART to the street car on Embarcadero. The girls tried the audio tour of the prison, but found it to be too scary and uninteresting for their taste. We had a better time simply exploring and looking around on our own.

When Sofi Babysits (January 2013)

Kitty-cats (January-March 2013)

Just some of the cuddly fun with the kitties last winter:
