East Bay Regional Park Cellphone Photos

I've been exercising a ton in East Bay Regional Parks in the San Francisco Bay Area lately. I took some cellphone photos on my trips. Here are the photos I took.
On February 20th, I went to Redwood Regional Park in Oakland, CA. I took photos of Coast Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens).
On February 21th, I did a 9 mile look around Lake Chabot in Lake Chabot Regional Park in Castro Valley, CA.
Yesterday, on February 27th, I took a hike through Pleasanton Ridge Regional Park in Sunol, CA. You can see snow on the distant hills. It has been extremely cold this year. Snow in the SF Bay Area is pretty rare. My friend took photos of more snow in the morning. My hike was a bit late so a lot has melted. This is the first time I saw this much snow in the bay area out of living here for almost two decades.

An eucalyptus tree that has fallen across the trail. I did end up helping clear a bit of the foliage with my Swiss Army Knife to help out other hikers, but my saw was too small to remove more.

On December 15th, 2017, I visited Berkeley Marina in Berkeley, CA. It was a very smoggy day. Here are the photos I shot on that day. I have been traveling a lot lately which is why the blog posts are a bit late. I haven't had time to work on the photos.
