Pine Trail - Eagle Creek Trail - Rincon Road Trail

Michael and I went to a wonderful concert in Pismo Beach down the coast last night (where Jon Anderson performed a solo concert) and had a reunion with some great friends from around the country at this show. After we got back this afternoon, took Bella out for a ride in the after-glo of a delightful adventure.

Pine Trail near the intersection of Eagle Creek Trail - I love this photo; it's one of my screensavers

And back to the Eagle Creek Trail




Eagle Creek Trail - love how branches are growing out of the fallen redwood like a big ol'planter box. This is one of my screensavers.

Another one of my favorite photos that I'm using as a screensaver.

Loved the late afternoon light in this photo, so it's also in my screensaver album. At this point, the Pine Trail comes out of the forest and goes along Graham Hill Road for about 1.5 miles all the way back to the showgrounds, but usually not so close to the road (which is on the left) or this narrow a path.
