There is no place on Earth like Northern California

My friend Beth moved there and I finally got to visit her

This was one of the best trips of my life, mostly because of her

I love you Beth! I have got to get back out there soon.

She took my husband and I up the coast to Point Reyes National Seashore

I completely fell in love. I mean I knew I would love California

but I was unprepared for exactly how much it felt like I belonged here

Point Reyes National Seashore was established to preserve and protect wilderness, natural ecosystems, and cultural resources along the diminishing undeveloped coastline of the western United States.

Located just an hour's drive from a densely populated metropolitan area, the Seashore is a sanctuary for myriad plant and animal species and for the human spirit—for discovery, inspiration, solitude, and recreation—and exists as a reminder of the human connection to the land.
