Another Pictorial Travelogue..........

I recently moved back home to the San Francisco bay area........went on a group hike today.....Sierra Club/Greenbelt group......@ Pt. Reyes Natl. Seashore park.......luckily the govt.'s budget was ok, so the park was open today......welcome to a part of my home town......west Marin Cty.




some tule elk.....




the infamous wrist shot......wearing one of my H.U.R.T. watches(high utility risk timepieces)

It's good to be back home.

To all you guys from Scotland.........there's a town here in West Marin called Inverness
As most know Calif. was colonized by Spain....but Sir Francis Drake hung out in this area of the West Marin coast waaayyy back when.
