Rich and I made Pt Reyes our 1st stop in the San Francisco Bay Area when we arrived in 1977. For years afterward Rich would get me out the door at crack of dawn to get there early.
It is easier in January, the sun's a sleepyhead at 7:11a.m. Picked up Sara, picked up Peets Coffee. Even with icy roads we got there at 9. The Ranger said it was 30º at the Bear Valley Visitors Center, 60º and a slight breeze at the Point!
NO ONE ELSE WAS THERE.
Sara and I had Pt Reyes Lighthouse
to ourselves, 300 steps and ALL.
If that's not magic I don't know what is.
Still, when we were done hiking around,
going to grab lunch,
an old thought passed my mind...
Let me give Rich a call to check in.
There, not there.
