We decided last minute to go camping on Mt. Diablo as a mini vacation before school starts again. We just stayed one night, but had a lot of fun. We went on an evening hike and watched the sunset, got to see a tarantula about every 20 feet, lizards, deer, and lots of raccoons. Then we roasted marshmellows. Sleeping was a little difficult due to the teenagers camping close to us and the fact that they left their food out all night which brought out the raccoons in numbers. In the morning, we went for another hike and then decided to pack up and head home and take a good long nap.
