Day 142 of Year Long Road Trip Along America’s Scenic Byways
We got a late start to the morning, leaving Nicole’s around 9. Now that I understand how remote Highway 1 can be, I loaded up at Safeway and the Shell Station before driving across the city to the Golden Gate Bridge in a light drizzle. The bridge was visible once I got on it!
The Reader’s Digest book called for visiting the Marin Headlands on the north side of the bridge and Muir Woods National Monument. I had previously visited both places on a sunny day during a time when it wasn’t National Parks Week which provides free entrance to the masses. I found two full parking lots and cars parked on the side of the road as far as I could see, so I continued north to visit some less popular areas, especially since the tops of the trees were blanketed in fog.
ON THE ROAD AGAIN!
