San Francisco, Day #4

Well, actually we're staying at a small town in the Point Reyes area (north of SF) called Inverness, which is on Tomales Bay. We've been driving all over the Point Reyes National Seashore... it's kind of a photographer's paradise up here! I have a huge number of photos to process and catalog. Heading back home tomorrow, so this will be my last post for a couple days.  Just want to share a few of my favorite photos from today.
Dutch Girl... getting back to her farming roots!
Trail back from the Elephant Seal overlook, Pt. Reyes. And yes, lots of Elephant Seals!
Took this yesterday... "Surfing Alcatraz".  They were surfing almost directly under
the Golden Gate Bride, with views of Alcatraz in the background.
The "Point Reyes" shipwreck in Tomales Bay
This beached fishing boat is very popular with photographers, and was very close to our motel. One of my favorite photos.
