With Chris, who is visiting from Somerville (MA),
for
two wonderful
short hikes on Mt. Tamalpais,
first from Pantoll along Bolinas Ridge to a
woodsy aerie,
summarily
followed
by
the
classic
Verna Dunshee Loop,
circumnavigating West Peak,
with prospects to San Francisco Bay,
San Rafael,
and the
seemingly endless
ridges north --
topped off
by a
lovely meal at
Mountain Home Inn.
Homeward via
101,

marshlands
of

towards

The day begins with the morning requirement, teaching the brilliant class,
and a sixth Concord Starbucks /
Magoos compositional exercise,
before heading off Marinwise...
