On the Side of the Road

The other day, my friend and I drove through a rural part of the San Francisco Bay Area.
This lonely gnarled tree on the hillside caught my eyes.

Later, we caught this cow sleeping under a tree. If you click on the picture for a closer look, you can see he/she has its eyes closed with what looks like a smile on its face. Happy cows do come from California like the commercial says. Although, it is sad to see markings on his/her hide.

On this stretch of the road, we saw a turkey scurry away just as we drove by.
