Sometimes you just have to do something that you've wanted to do for many years, and for me, that was renting one of the stunning houses that perch over Tomales Bay at Marshall. So with two great friends, a lot of wine and cheese, I headed out for a brief, mid-week adventure.
And here, under threatening skies, is the sweetest house barely attached to the land. The next day brought clear skies and roads to Point Reyes National Seashore, "an island in time," where species exist here, but nowhere else in the world. Dangerous cliffs towering over long, white beaches, wind-swept rolling hills with dairy ranches established as early as 1846. The lighthouse was closed, sparing us a long walk down and up.
But that left us time to relax and sketch.
Looking for northward whales, mommies and babies, paid off. Look closely, just above the bump in the hill, the mommy and baby, so close to shore. We had been looking far out to sea, and here they were right below us.
