Chico, California is kind of an alt-Davis for me and Dad. It has that same college town vibe with really nice creekside hiking opportunities. We took advantage of that yesterday since Dad is back in town for a few days.
We also took care of some business. My passport is up for renewal (I can’t believe it’s been ten years), so we had my picture taken. It’s strange because you’re not supposed to smile, and I always smile for photos. It was hard to change the habit. The guy at the store was very patient with me.
The “praying hands” you see in the picture here are the Chico equivalent of the UC Davis “eggheads.” We visited them too (my old friends).
