Pat and I recently took advantage of the sunny San Francisco weather to cross the bridge to Marin County. We headed to Sausalito first and did a tour of the Heath Ceramics Factory, which was fascinating. I can’t wait to share our photos later.
We also spent some time hiking Mount Tamalpais State Park. Although Pat bikes in the area frequently, it was my first time exploring Mt. Tam. The trails are pretty easy and afford great views of the entire bay. You can see the bridge, San Francisco and the East Bay. It’s beautiful!
Tamalpais. I was trying to spit out the mouthful of a word and one of the nurses at work corrected me. It’s TAM -al PIE US. It rolls around on your tongue nicely, doesn’t it?
All photos were taken with my HTC One. Oh so hi-tech! : )
I love Mt. Tam! Another fun hiking spot (pretty easy too) is Sweeney Ridge in San Bruno. You can see both the ocean and the bay (it’s where Portola discovered the bay)!
Awesome – we will check it out. Thanks for the tip. We are always open to suggestions!
Super jealous of your Heath Ceramics tour! I’m dreaming of one day owning a whole collection…
Ditto! We were looking only. Definitely hard to resist, especially after hearing the story of the company and how everything is done by hand.
I absolutely love this area!! Stinson Beach is one of my favorite places.on.earth!
Nice! I’m so happy to have it all a short drive away!
