March 25 - Ancient of Days


With


Harriet


to


Marin


Headlands --


via


Orange,


Nut Tree,


Monte Vista,


80


through


American


Canyon,


37


over


Napa Marsh


and


Petaluma


Plain, and


101 --


curving


on


Conzelman,


then down



to Rodeo Valley,


Lagoon,


and


Beach,


to rendezvous with her


SCC


Geography Class


for an exploration around


environs,


back 


up to the highlands beyond Hill 129


and


dropping


precipitously


to


Field Circle.


A


walk 


towards


Bonita


Point


follows


with a stop examining a


fault outlier of the San Andreas,


then


solo


across


Cliff


Bridge


and


through the



Tunnel,


stopping short of the


line to the Lighthouse.


Reversing course,


pick up the car and have a time of it tracking down our friendly carpoolers,


then off to Rodeo Cliff


and


return


to


initial


meeting



point.


Farewell,


reversing


course


up


towards


the


Golden


Gate,


re-encoutering


101


North,


in sight of


Mt. Tamalpais --


Sir


Francis Drake


to a quixotic post-box


quest,


and equally puzzling attempt at a


Mexican repast --


homeward


via


familiar


territories


made


anew


in


a


brief


squall,


and


finally


beyond


to


renewed


fair skies...
