Hi all. I'm gonna split this in two threads. There are a lot of pics but I narrowed it down to these.

Agate Beach

There was a lot of driftwood at the bottom of the path

I love this camera. 12x zoom of the previous pic at the end of the point

closeup of previous pic

See part 2 for more

Hi Tony. We were up by Eureka/Arcata. Sure was nice.
Alice, I'm afraid I have some bad news for you. If you come to see the coast in Summer, all you'll see is fog. Mark Twain once said, "The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco". And it's true. Best time to see our coast is Oct-April. That only pertains to Northern Calif.

Doesn't matter if there's fog.

One son wants to go to Lego land, my other son wants to go to Disney, I want to see my friend in San Fran., and visit Carmel.
They're all pretty far from eachother, but we have 2 months to kill. So no rush to get home

I've got a 10 x on mine but I'd need to quit drinking coffee to get any pics that weren't blurry.
