The Lake and The Creek.

R and I took a walk around Lake Merritt this morning. I love the fact that there are about a million Canadian geese nesting and swimming around the lake right now. Here is a picture I took of a bunch of them sitting on the grass near the lake. The walk was really nice, it was nice to get out of the house and be active and the weather was perfect. After the walk we wandered up Grand Avenue and had some lunch and then we wandered over to Lakeshore and looked into the shops and had some frozen yogurt. Just an over all nice morning and afternoon.

Later in the day we went out to Walnut Creek to go shopping at the Crate and Barrel. We still have gift certificates for C&B from the wedding so I just figured we could go see if anything looked interesting. I ended up buying a cookbook and a candle but R and I did fall in love with a couple pieces of furniture there.

We went to the book store after C&B and I bought a book on options trading. I do plan on reading up and becoming an expert. We'll see. . .
