When I was a kid I lived on the tip of the Monterey Peninsula, where traveling north, west, or south on any street or avenue would eventually bring me to either Monterey Bay or the Pacific Ocean.
Now living in Marin County, for me to get my "water-kicks" these days I need to travel 20 miles to the south; to the Point Bonita and Fort Baker sections of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Often the weather is overcast at Point Bonita, just like I remember on the Monterey Peninsula.

Yes, we "Marinites" enjoy our playground down-by-the-bridge...
Meet Robb Collins, who had an easel set up and looked to be having a great time painting the San Francisco skyline from a good vantage point at Point Covello. Robb Collins has a great website featuring his paintings at: http://www.robbcollins.com/Art/Home.html.
