Point Reyes National Seashore


One of California's wonders, this triangular area of land slips north along the San Andreas faultline, inches at a time...Tomales Bay to the east and the Pacific Ocean to the west. On the day we visited Abbott's Lagoon, the sea rolled in...pure, perfect waves cresting and falling like liquid jade, capped with white foam caught and carried by the wind.
On the lagoon edged by sand dunes and cliffs we saw a great egret, black scoters, a blue heron, coots bobbing along the edge. Gulls gathered on the beach, lifting and landing; a thought expressing itself.
