Now, with daylight-savings-time gone, it's a little bit easier to catch the sunrise... See you there...
OOPS... my mistake... The end of Daylight savings time isn't until NEXT week... I'm an idiot...

Bay Bridge

Compared to the Golden Gate Bridge, there is little or no romance associated with our Bay Bridge -- the bridge from San Francisco to Oakland... However, sometimes it can be rather beautiful...

I still haven't found out the story behind the curious name of Rodeo Beach -- it might require an interesting trip to the local history section of our county library some day...

Marin County Civic Center

I don't think Frank Lloyd Wright personally penciled every little detail of our Marin County Civic Center, but he is creditied with it's design... Wright called it organic architecture -- the building was supposed to be a part of the surrounding hills and water... It is an amazing building, and well worth a visit...

Salt Point
click photo for full-size image
photo by Donald Kinney
On Sunday a buddy and I went on a little photographic expedition to Salt Point, on the rugged northern California coastline... If you want to photograph incredible sandstone -- Salt Point is the place to go... The waves were crashing more wildly than I have probably ever seen them... I'll stick my head out and say that the sandstone at Salt Point is about 100 times better than the sandstone at Point Lobos... Salt Point is remote, and it takes forever to get there -- but it is well worth a visit...
Directions to the best sandstone area:
Park at Stump Beach... Hike down to the beach, cross the creek and look for the little path up the other side... Go south about a quarter mile and you will feel you have arrived on Mars, --or the planet of your choice... The display continues for another quarter of a mile to the south... If you are anything like me, you will probably be doing a lot of ooooh'ing and aaaaaw'ing...

On Monday I visited the U.C. Berkeley Botanical Garden, in Strawberry Canyon, right above the campus... The place is huge -- I spent about 4 hours there and only saw about one-third of what they have... Their succulents are fantastic... I highly recommend the place, and I'll be back -- for sure...
Message to you know who -- I'm still working on the Rodeo Beach name...

Black Sands Beach is within spitting-distance of the Golden Gate Bridge... On weekdays the beach is unpopulated, but on weekends you've got to be careful not to step on a nudist... The hike back up the cliff is a workout...

Salt Point

photo by Donald Kinney
Not too many people know that Salt Point, about 90 miles north of San Francisco on Highway 1, has an outstanding display of eroding sandstone... You can find this same type of eroding sandstone at Point Lobos, about 200 miles to the south, but Salt Point definitely puts on more of a show for shutterbugs, artists, and nature lovers...

war machines -- Blue Angels
click photo for full-size image
photo by Donald Kinney
Friday afternoon I didn't have anything else to do, so I headed down to the area around the Golden Gate Bridge... Leagues of spectators were gathering, and I finally realized what was up -- the Blue Angels were in town and they were starting their Friday practice session for the big show Saturday and today... I managed to temporarily suspend my repulsion to anything "war", and enjoyed the graceful turns and forceful charges of the jets... They are truly incredible machines -- just a shame we live in a world that thinks war is a way to live...
