Russian Ridge Hike, July 4, 2015
Ginger, Karen and Meg did a hike in Russian Ridge Open Space Preserve, followed by lunch at Buck's Restaurant in Woodside. While hiking back to the parking lot, a helicopter from Stanford Hospital started circling overhead, then landed on Skyline Blvd. at the intersection of Page Mill Rd. Ginger took some videos of the helicopter, which rescued a bicyclist who hit a pothole on Page Mill Rd. and broke his ribs. All photos and videos were taken with Ginger's new Sony DSC-RX100M3 camera.
