California Coast (from the air)

aerial california coast pacific ocean highway

My random, desktop image of the day is this one. This coastline is somewhere between Los Angeles and San Francisco. This was one of those frustrating, backtracking flights. I started out in Medford, flew south to L.A., and then flew from L.A. to Tokyo. The Los Angeles to Narita leg covered much of the same ground, in reverse, from my first flight. I flew over San Francisco in my first flight and my second (shortly after this photo was taken).

If you click on the photo you can see the coast up close. Anyone know, specifically, where this little stretch of houses between the road and ocean is?

Jack London Square sunset

(Oakland, California)

After a fabulous dinner of BBQ at Everett & Jones Barbeque, we headed over to the waterfront at Jack London Square to enjoy the sunset. I’m not sure if this is the Lady Washington (or maybe the Hawaiian Chieftain?), but some tall ship was forming the perfect foreground for the night’s sunset last Thursday.

AC/DC road trip

Sunrise from I-5 north of Mt. Shasta

This past Thursday I headed down I-5 with a friend with the destination being the San Francisco Bay Area to see AC/DC at AT&T Park. Things began with the sunrise in today’s photo.

More Mt. Shasta photos here.
