YESTERDAY
  
 Sunset in Paradise
 Touching the Horizon

One great thing about having a house in the hills is that a day at home is still a vacation.  We live in a quiet part of the hills, so there's usually no traffic noise outside. The houses are spaced far enough apart that we can blast the stereo (with the windows closed) and not disturb the neighbors too much. We have met most of our neighbors through the local Neighborhood Watch program. Most of them are older folks.  Some are retired and all very nice. 

We live on Villanova which could be translated as "House of the Sun" in Spanish.  When we first moved here in 1993, I could not get the Animal's tune "House of the Rising Sun" out of my head for weeks.

Throughout the year, the position of the setting sun shifts slowly across the horizon.  It is March and it is now setting just over the Golden Gate. The sunsets over the bay still never cease to amaze us.
