Sunday { Outside } the City.
I felt like finding myself immersed in nature this Sunday, so I took a drive out to a sleepy seaside town up north, Bolinas. San Franciscans know the locals who live in Bolinas like to keep it a sacred, secret place. To the point of taking down the directional sign every chance they get. There was no sign today, luckily but by now I just know where to turn left. Here's a glimpse of a town that's just a little off the map, and likes it that way.
Looking to Get Lost.
Nowhere Land.
Actually Closed.
Good Grandson.
Bolinas.
Don't Fence Me In.
Nowhere to Be Found.
Love on the Rocks.

What a lovely getaway, and how fortunate to be so near you can just hop in your car and drive there on a day-trip. I adore the last picture in this set, "Love on the Rocks." Beautiful!
Love, love, love.
That arrow photo is friggin awesome.
Great shots. I love that arrow too.
i'd probably want to keep it hush, hush and all to myself too.
so charming.
Victoria, I love your photos! I feel like getting out myself. Thanks for sharing.
I LOVE the photo with the beach - AMAZING!!!
This was like a fabulous mini-vacation at 8:52am in the morning...
Love the fence. And I too, am all about that arrow...
Great photos and commentary! Glad to see someone loves grandma so devotedly - it warms my heart.
WOW. I was in SF for the first time this weekend, and the coast up North is breath-taking. Guess I missed Bolinas!
I love your Sunday!!!!
Mysterious places are so attractive!
Victoria... I cannot say enough about this series! My favorite so far, esp. the arrow photo. You inspire me to get in the car and go-o-o-o-o! --Joan
wow, the photos are amazing!
I live near Muir Beach and used to play soccer in Bolinas as a kid. Such a fun, funky hidden gem.
Pretty fabulous photo with the swash of pink and an arrow!
This made me so happy to see! I just got back from my very first trip to SF a week ago, and we spent a wonderful weekend in Bolinas. It's a lovely spot!
Magnificent photos!!
i always forget that i mean to go here, but then remember that it might not be so easy...it looks like a must-do, now. lovely photos, thank you.
Fabulous photos! I am in NorCal as well (Sonoma County) and I don't think I've ever been to Bolinas. I'll have to add that to my day trip list!
Beutiful images!
Great shots... looks you had fun getting out!
beautiful! I adore Bolinas but spent more time in Stinson Beach as a kid (thanks to family there), so it seems there's still always some little dinky nook for me to discover in BoBo. So many happy memories in West Marin!
i love bo!! my bf and i took photos infront of that very pumpkin patch last year!! what a treat to see it from someone elses eyes. :)
oh, bolinas....you are a hidden gem.
love bolinas. this past labor day festival in their festival I scored some delish honey.
awwww west marin♥
These photos are absolutely spectacular. I love the "Nowhere Land" image. It practically glitters.
Oh, how I love Bolinas! I've spent some time there, and wrote a short story that was based there about a surfer, love, the ocean at night...hmm, I should pull that out and read it again... thanks for the reminder! :)
