Mercedes (+Kia)

Mercedes Benz (Fairfax) - Marin County  2026

Mercedes Benz (Fairfax) - Marin County  2026

 Nice looking Mercedes parked near my gym . . . I've seen it a couple of times. Very cool: gray, but matte gray. I'm going to request the same finish the next Mercedes that I get. 

Although black is also quite satisfactory.

[UPDATE: Walking around in back of Costco yesterday, just saw a new Kia with . . . matte gray paint job! Maybe a coming thing?]

Kids Clothes

Kids Clothes on Fence (Fairfax) - Marin County  2026

Very colorful. Clothes taken off during the hurly-burly of kid activities, then forgotten.

Reminds me a little of Teakettle Junction.

Liquidambar Trees

Liquidambar Leaves (Fairfax) - Marin County  2026

Also known as "sweetgum" trees. But I've never heard them called that - not in Fairfax anyway.

We were traveling in New York in 2018, looking for some autumn colors, but not really seeing any. Much nicer foliage when we returned to Marin County, thanks to these trees.

Moon, Hills (Fairfax) - Marin County  2026

Nikon Z7II / 24-200mm lens.

Nice enough, but can't compare to the iconic "Moonrise - Fresno" photo.

Shawna's Birthday!

Shawna & Mike (Photo by Hali) - Sierra Nevada  1980

Wow!

So, we were originally camping over in Death Valley, but it got way too hot. So we drove over the mountains to a campsite higher up in Owens Valley. Much cooler!

BTW, those mountains have been the subject of a prior blog post.

Next: Shawna and Hali . . . in Marin County? Alas, no year indicated.
