I love Northern Cali, I had a amazing time when I visited in November 04... The drive on Hwy 17 IIRC from San Jose to Santa Cruz is amazing! I gotta see if I can find some of the pics I took

Bagged a big one this weekend boys... Hunting in 70 degree weather is not as much fun as it is in the snow. But these bigger ones seem to come out more in the warm daytime.

How'd you get him to lie that still? You didn't hurt it, did you!?!?

Tooooooo funny....

I know that one, too... That damn road almost cost me a flight once. It is a trip to drive, but the traffic is nutty!

Definately not 17 then...

I have been on that road at all hours and there always seems to be traffic. It is a mother of a road; two lanes in each direction and almost as many curves as the Dragon... Just ugly with traffic...
