Stinson

: wake up, feed Joan, N.B. calls, go on a road trip with him; adrive over the Golden Gate Bridge listening to his Spotify station for dubstep; Marin is lush, the buildings small and odd; reminds me of a Japanese seaside town; bicyclists make me nervous; the hills are gorgeous and the sea a luscious blue; smell in the air of fresh nature; think about Rise of the Continents; imaging the landscape and what it must have been like millions of years ago; but is it even the same place?; Stinson Beach: the sand is soft and cool; the wind is strong and cold; waves break in foamy sections like torn paper; driftwood, toddlers; walk south towards giant boulders and a secluded section of the beach; tire tracks and footprints; “Two footprints enter, one footprint leaves”; find a tidepool and search for animals; take his picture and Instagram it; drive further north towards Point Reyes; stop in Port Reyes Station, a small Western town of restaurants and artisan shops; go to Cafe Reyes for fire cooked pizza and oysters; at the Western Saloon we have a beer; there are pictures of Prince Charles and Camilla on top of the bar from their visit; they saved their glasses underneath an acrylic box in Crown Royale purple bags and topped with a party crown; drive back into the city; it’s great seeing the city from this viewpoint; greenery everywhere, reminds me of a 70s view of a modern city or driving into Seattle; laundry; watch Mad Men; scenes of characters cheating on their partners makes me anxious, that the other person will walk in on them and get angry; does Megan have cancer? She had weird moments of coughing last season, had a miscarriage, and is still “sick”; or is it nerves?; I wonder if her character will die before the end of the season.
