in Exercising
Jennifer and I went for a bike ride that was a bit more involved, this time the lock we went to discover was far Los Altos Hills between the freeway and the hills. Lots of up and downs... (actually my GPS said we only did 24 miles in 7h, but we went up 3000ft)
We started by Rancho San Antonio:
a bunch of few turkeys
looking for prey
nice colors
The hills are hilly, lots of up biking (or walking), with views:

We then exited the park towards Los Altos Hills and a nice little private lake they don't like to share with others :)
More houses:
rich kids get their own private playground
deer in your backyard (both good and bad)
you can camp in your own yard

Another connecting path:
nice view of the private lake
we then took another connecting path to another path along 280, and back out to civilization
