Northern California Coast Drive

Here's some more California….even though we are now in Vegas.

I never seemed to have the time when in California to post much..

Where we are parked now in Calico Basin. outside of Vegas…we are in a bowl surrounded by Beautiful red rocks..I will do a post later with pictures of our Homey parked at our friends home.. The location is amazing..but ,,,we have lousy internet.

So I am uploading this post from Whole Foods..a 15 minute drive from Calico Basin.

****************************************************************

When we took this drive toward Bodega Bay..it was a clear day…ken and sherrys_003Sunlit grasses….      ken and sherrys_014

And then…the fog came…ken and sherrys_012

           Thin wispsken and sherrys_021ken and sherrys_020 And then thicker….ken and sherrys_022and we we are above the clouds…

ken and sherrys_004

ken and sherrys_008

Beautiful…with the fog…ken and sherrys_010

Another wonderful day….ken and sherrys_011

So…as you might figure..I wont be online much…unless I am lucky to get connected in the Basin…

Otherwise..its Wi-Fi Cafes…

    The northern coast is ruggedly beautiful. When you're above the clouds it looks like the ocean foam. Nice captures. Have fun near Vegas.

    The picture above the fog was really neat. Do you ever pay to park anymore? I bet your yearly budget is a lot less than ours.

    My favorite part of this world! I love the fog. Your last two pictures are fantastic! Well, they all are. I can understand very well how you can't find time to write while in that part of the world. I would just want to look and enjoy.

    The bottom two photos remind me of when they have the huge fires and the smoke is hampering the sunlight.

    Wish I could be there with you Dawn. I'd love to drive along the california coast!
