Autumn Foliage & Livermorium Plaza - Livermore, CA

On the 1st December 2024, my parents and I went to Livermore, CA to take photos of autumn foliage. It is a tiny bit past season for autumn foliage, but I was still able to get some good photos. At night, we went to Downtown Livermore for dinner, and I took a few photos of Livermorium Plaza. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Del Valle Regional Park - Livermore, CA (Cellphone Photos)

Yesterday, on the 14th March 2025, my parents and I drove into the hills behind Livermore, CA to see snow on the peaks near Lake Del Valle. I saw photos of snowy peaks online in the morning, but unfortunately all of it melted by the time we got there in the afternoon. Someone online said the snow last probably 30 minutes past sunrise, before a warmer storm moved in and melted all of it. Despite there being no snow, the fog and clouds were beautiful. My mom and I took a walk along East Ridge Trail in Del Valle Regional Park in Livermore, CA. I took a few photos with my cellphone. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Before you head to East Ridge Trail, just know the trail is super muddy and soft after the rain storms. If you don't want to walk through that, you might want to give it a few days for the trail to dry out.

Brushy Peak Regional Preserve - Livermore, CA (Cellphone Photos)

Yesterday, on the 11th March 2025, my mom and I went for a short hike at Brushy Peak Regional Preserve in Livermore, CA. This was our first time at this park, and I was near the area after my doctor appointment, so I decided to check it out. I took some photos with my cellphone. I hope you enjoy viewing my photos!

Message from the Photographer: You're probably shocked to hear me say hike. This is my second hike since my COVID infection at the end of November 2023. My mom and I kept it short, 2 miles total, and we went super slow. I'm getting claustrophobic just heading to Sycamore Grove Park every few days. I had a little bit more energy yesterday, so I figured why not check out a park I haven't been to before. I am definitely paying for it today. I am currently in a moderate ME/CFS crash unfortunately (but I expected it).
