Things we saw at Point Reyes

Tall pines in the mist, a pale nudibranch with a row of circles down its back, a loon chased by a seal, cliffhanging succulents, huckleberry trees heavy with fruit, a herd of multicolored fallow deer, a rubber boa, two garter snakes, mule deer, a dead jellyfish, boys with backpacks toting firewood, a beetle giving another a piggyback ride, the sea, ceanothus bushes, a tall horse, a Japanese woman wearing a Japanese hat, a pelican carcase, a solitary heron, a fallen tree that might serve perfectly as a bench, ferns, trees blackened by the Mount Vision fire with white lichen growing on them, a rock shaped like a face with spectacles, a man who told us we were in Mexico, poison oak.
