After spending a week at high altitude, I like to get to sea level and become grounded. Today was a wonderful fall day in Sonoma County. We live only 28 miles from the coast, but don’t go there much except in the fall. Fall is the best beach time in Northern California. The rest of the year it is quite cold and foggy. So we loaded the Magster in the jeep, stopped at Whole Foods for sandwiches and drinks and headed for Bodega Bay.

Bodega Bay seems like a nice place to live:

It is definitely a nice place to while away a November afternoon.

Discovering the beauty of kelp:

But, the best, is walking with someone you love!
