Folsom

Recently, I attended a conference in Folsom, California, which is located a little east of Sacramento on the American River.

Folsom 7It was a lovely spring afternoon, and after the conference was over for the day, I took a brief walk out by the river.

Folsom 2It was a lovely little path by the river …

Folsom 8Really, quite nice …

Folsom 4Except for these guys … who came out of the water and up to the pathway and proceeded to stand in my way and hissed at me … so I hissed back …

Folsom 3The path went underneath this bridge …

Folsom 6Folsom 5So I went farther down the path …

Folsom 9And eventually found my way to the top of the bridge, where I could shoot this picture of yet another bridge here in the town of Folsom.

(And, just in case you are interested, I was at this conference to cover a panel of scientists speaking about collaborative science.  You can check it out here:  Prominent scientists discuss “collaborative science” at Interagency Ecological Program Annual Workshop)

So long from Folsom!
