Point Reyes


My dad and I drove up north to Point Reyes today.








See that thing by the sign? That is a gray whale's skull.






North.






Sitting up above the Pacific in the wind and sunshine, waiting for an instant to develop...ahh. :)


The whale skull again.








Rattlesnake grass.

    gabi - Uganda is your home, but do you miss the sea there?

    Girl in the Black Beret - There is nothing like it, mmm.

    Milli - It's the one thing I remember from a nature walk at camp when I was young, hah! You can eat the part that looks like a rattlesnake's tail. Tastes kind of like unsalted unbuttered popcorn.

    Erin - Yess. So good for the soul, it is.

    spider- Ah. How long do you think it is until you do? Have you before?

    geekspawn - I know you know about the sea, even if you don't have one most of the time.

    Yes, I've seen it several times before. (Though I've seen the Atlantic, not the Pacific.) And I should get to see it again... this June? I think that's right.

    Beth - A view to make your spirit sing, isn't it? To steal a line from Dia Calhoun.
