MitchW Posted March 18, 2024 Posted March 18, 2024 (edited) I know California has a lot of coastline; I mean, I lived in Santa Barbara, have spent time in San Diego, Santa Cruz, Marin, etc. but I just think the Sonoma coast is so beautiful. And driving around and through rural Sonoma county, you could easily be in another land. This is the Russian River meeting the Pacific Ocean. At Jenner, CA. At the mouth of the river, harbor seals haul out and have their pups. Like, hundreds of them. At what is called Goat Rock Beach. Edited March 18, 2024 by MitchW 4 Quote
StephanieL Posted March 19, 2024 Posted March 19, 2024 (edited) To me, the whole coast around here is wonderful. All of the coastline in my part of the East Coast is flat flat flat. Over the weekend, we did some glorious driving and trail walking around Pacifica, Princeton Point, and Half Moon Bay. Edited March 19, 2024 by StephanieL Quote
MitchW Posted March 19, 2024 Author Posted March 19, 2024 I once almost got arrested for climb8ng on the rocks above Pacifica; just got ticketed instead. Half Moon Bay is lovely…have you ever been here…https://www.duartestavern.com/ Quote

We've been watching them for a long time, and worry every time one of them brings up a bird to feed the eaglets. Apparently, the peregrines are no longer around at UC Berkeley, and she had successfully raised chicks for over 10 years. Experts believe they succumbed to avian flu. Quote
