Point Reyes Lighthouse

Normally a quick drive up a hill, turned out we came right at whale watching season.  I felt outgunned with my little 150mm telephoto around full frame 500mm fanatics.

It was quite a hike.  Down 308 stairs and several ramps.  Those National Park bastards counted ramps equivalent to 10 stairs as only one several times.

Grass and moss seem to be able to grow anywhere.  I wish I wrote this blog earlier so I could remember what the Park lady told me about the special mosses that grow here.  The rock faces around the stairs were fantastic.

There it is.  Number 308.  Trust me, that's a hella lotta stairs.

Looking out over the sea.  Maybe we'll sail across it someday?
