The California Coast is our favorite vacation spot. There
are so many beautiful places - ranging from gentle beaches
in the south to the rugged Big Sur Coast to the north, where
steep cliffs plunge precipitously into the Pacific. The
coast has many moods from a quiet fog shrouded day to a
bright sunny, cloudless day. The pictures depicted here show
these moods. Some were taken in Spring and some in Fall over
a period of several years. If you are observant, you may
spot whales migrating along the coast, see sea lions basking
on a remote beach or sea otters playing in the kelp. Spring
brings many varieties of wildflowers, carpeting the hills
with yellows, blues and whites.
