Fall 2009. Good fun.
Possible correction: one shot looks more like Tomales Bay than the Estero, and yet how could it be mixed in with the others? (I guess there's some kayaking to be done soon to double-check.)
Still, Point Reyes National Seashore. Check it out. Great hiking too. Oh, and make a detour to Point Reyes Station on your way to pick up scones at the Bovine Bakery. Best scones I know. The bookstore there will be well worth your time too. But the scones . . . Bovine Bakery.
