Hike to Griffith Observatory

Future objective
Enrico was happy to take Stan's picture this morning. Enrico was visiting from Guadalajara, Mexico, and now this tourista from Minnesota wanted a picture to prove that he and his dog had climbed to the Griffith Observatory before breakfast today.
The spectacular view offered Stan a chance for more even more planning. Over there is the Roosevelt Golf Course, on the right is the Hollywood sign, where's the Zoo, the Greek Theatre, the model trains. . . and down below. . . hey look, you can see our house from here.
Thanks, Enrico!

All this is good to find out, because soon Stan's sister will be in town and she'll want to go to many places.  It was a good work out today, the creaky knees held up on the inclines and there was still enough gas in the tank for a brief jog on the way down.
