Checked into Eaton Canyon Waterfall
This is far more stunning when there’s no one around. I’m positive this is the first time I’ve ever been here and not seen anyone else around!

Portrait view of Eaton Canyon Waterfall in the distance without a soul in sight
Very wide 360 degree view of the cul-de-sac at the Eaton Canyon Waterfall. A lovely sigth unmarred by other human presence.
View of the Eaton Canyon Waterfall from the water's edge. A large smooth rock is sitting in the breach at the top of the falls.

Checked into Eaton Canyon Hiking Trail

Hiking out to the waterfall today. Had to get a reservation for entry from 8-11 am, but coming now means we shouldn’t see too many people.

Trail entrance at the end of the parking lot at the Eaton Canyon trailhead. Features a large yellow banner proclaiming Prevent the Spread of COVID-19 with port-a-potties to the left and a trailhead bulletin board on the right.
featuring two beds of small cactus that are budding reddish "blooms" surrounded by dry looking brush and chapparal
Abandoned concrete building over the creek featuring a spraypainted "prison window"
A small creek empties out from a 5 foot concrete waterfall down to a boulder strewn creek bed
a footlong remains of an animal's spinal colum with some flesh and fascia still attached sitting amongst some leaves. Maybe from either a large raccoon or a small coyote?

Checked into Stater Bros. Markets

Impulsively stopping in for a soda run. Got 5 bottles of Coke Zero for $0.99 each. This was a quick stop with almost no wait. Where’s the lunch time rush?

Checked into Roma Market Italian Deli

Picking up sandwiches for lunch. Almost no line today, so it was a quick in and out.

close up of parking sign that reads Parking for Pietro's, Fishery & Roma Market Customers Only. Unauthorized vehicles will be cited or towed away at vehicle owner's expense
view of Roma Market from the parking lot. Pietro's Italian restaurant is next door to the right.
