Part 12

I spent a few days with friends in Sebastopol, CA. I liked the little town. It had not 1, but 2 gem shops. And a goddess shop. I was sent in the direction of an insanely good bread bakery on the way to the beach, and had one of the best days of the whole trip. It was warm enough to walk along the beach for hours. This was my first time at the Pacific Ocean, not counting my trip across the Bay Bridge. I wrote messages in the sand to friends back home and poked at the alien-looking vegetable creatures drying out in the sun. There were metal sculptures in people's yards on a couple streets in town, crazy found-object caricatures. There were a few vehicles with interesting paint jobs- chili peppers, even a black and white psychadelic swirl minivan. There are vineyards everywhere, and plenty of amazing food and wine.
