Stinson Beach in Marin is often more sunny and warmer than Muir Beach. On this day, though, the area was at first shrouded in mist. And mist is a good friend to most photographers. This was from the parking looking inland.

Typical weather at Muir Beach…
At home, going to the beach means the weather will be the same as at our house, and if it’s nice and warm there’ll be plenty of playing in the sand and shallow water.
In Marin you never know what you are going to find once you get to Muir Beach. Chances are it’ll be windy, cloudy, misty at times and the sound of the waves will be accompanied by the clatter of the children’s teeth as they run around in their bathing suits.
While most people have at least seen pictures of the amazing San Francisco, let me share with you now some images from Marin – the county just north of the Golden Gate and our favorite place to stay.

You’ve gotta love this town… “Here are we and here’s the car. That’s only ten blocks. We can easily walk that…”
