HISTORIC SHIPS MEMORIAL AT PACIFIC SQUARE

VALLEJO, CA

Always with a spring in their step You never know who you'll meet first thing in the morning. At least that's what I think these two said. 

A couple of hares, or Jackrabbits as they call them here, stepped out of the morning mist. As with all rabbits (and hares) they had somewhere to be, so they checked their watches and hurried off back into the mist.
