I woke up this morning in need of a drive. The rain finally cleared and the blue sky call was too hard to resist.
nikkigunn:
My intent was to head south to Half Moon Bay, but I found myself going north instead, up Sir Francis Drake Blvd.
nikkigunn:
I guess I missed the hwy1 turn off because suddenly I was driving through Inverness toward Drakes Cove and the Pacific Ocean
nikkigunn:
At last! No one on the beach except me, two german tourists and a bunch of mating seals
nikkigunn:
I made it!! This is the first downward hill toward Pt. Reyes Station. I can coast in...I'm not going to miss my 4:00 meeting...and wow look at the flowering trees!
nikkigunn:
Tank now full, I drove up hwy1 toward Tomalas Bay State Park for lunch at an oyster shack
nikkigunn:
now this is what I was searching for all day! A place to sit, have lunch and take in a view--i love that all of this is only an hour away
nikkigunn:
The landscape was really this saturated in color...and they say the sky in Texas is big!
nikkigunn:
On my way home and following a creek that runs along the road in Samuel Taylor State Park
nikkigunn:
Ahh, the city! My round about day trip has come to an end. After several wrong turns and short lived bouts of panic, I managed to come home refreshed and inspired!
