We are going coast to coast from the previous post to today’s post, from the Gulf Coast to the Californian Bay Area-Bodega Bay Pacific Ocean Coast, on our tour of America’s National Parks, Memorials, and Monuments. Point Reyes National Seashore is a special place. Of course, there is the sand and waves of the seashore, […]
