Crown Memorial State Beach is operated by the California Park District and the City of Alameda. It is on the San Francisco Bay, and just across the bay from San Francisco.
We went in to Alameda today to return the granddog that we had been dog sitting for the last week. Said dog lives with her parents in an apartment across the street from the beach.
This is the beginning of the best time of year to be in San Francisco, and around the bay; usually, September and October are superb, with sunshine and warmer weather.
Glorious summer shots Angeline! The turquoise water in the third shot is just gorgeous!
Thanks! And I totally did not see the girl behind the reeds when I took the photo…didn’t see her until I put it up on the computer screen
Feels like home. Beautiful image of the beach. Just so serene!
Thanks! It is serene there. A glorious warm afternoon.
Yes, autumn is nice. They say that today is the last day of summer around here, but this summer has been really bad: rain, rain, rain all the time – more than in the last 80 years or something they said. Anyway, it doesn’t matter because autumn is coming and the autumn is beautiful with all its colors, the fresh air and the taste of darkness.
Plus: Two weeks vacation, starting from today!!! See ya!
Lucky you! Hope it’s a fantastic two weeks!!
Nice shots, Angeline! Whenever people ask me when is the best time of year to visit San Francisco, I always tell them September and October. Autumn is so beautiful here.
Thanks Stephen. Yesterday was so beautiful that I had plans to head in to the City today, but….the best laid plans, etc. Sigh! Shooting for next weekend now.
Yesterday was absolutely beautiful here in the city. I went to the annual SF Food Fest on Folsom St. in the Mission, and it was downright warm. Today … not so much. Looks like the forecast is foggy with a chance of fog.
Haha…I like your weather forecast.
Wishing you a beautiful summer.
Thank you. We have a few weeks left of our summer, and are slowly heading in to autumn, my favorite time of year.
