Road to Nowhere:

It was a beautiful day in San Francisco today and Suzan and I decided to take a long drive with no destination in mind. I can’t recommend doing this enough if your curiosity is deep and your afternoon leisurely.

We headed over the Golden Gate Bridge and snaked along the Pacific Coast Highway, stopping in whatever little Marin County town suited our fancy. After respites in Dogtown, Olema, Inverness and a few others, we ended the day in Point Reyes Station an little tourist town that still manages to feel like an artists outpost in the mountains.

When in Point Reyes Station, the staff of Where’s There’s Smoke recommend a visit to Gallery Route One, an arist-run cooperative space doing excellent work in sculpture, painting and installation as well as a stop by Point Reyes Books, a solid neighborhood bookstore with the most comfortable seating area my butt has seen in quite some time.
