One of my favorite spots that I see too rarely is Point Bonita, in the Marin Headlands just across the Golden Gate from San Francisco. I'd like to go back again, and it seems ideal for making it into an SA gathering: pretty stuff to look at and walk to so that silences are less awkward, wide open spaces to run away into, and plenty of stuff to hide behind too.
We can do it whenever you're available. We can meet at the start of the path to the lighthouse, since that's easily recognizable and next to parking. If that lot is full (not sure how busy weekends get since I tend to go during the week), I think the visitor center would be the backup parking lot and you can walk the half mile from there.
Available activities: seal-watching (they're often piled on the rocks soaking up the sun), enjoying fantastic scenery, walking around, enjoying the beach and ocean, musing over abandoned structures.
Attached a few photos at the bottom to entice you. If that's not enough, here's the brochure.
Your special discount price for the fabulous vacation package: free. There's no entry fee and no parking fee.
Subject Matter
If you want to talk about SA, feel free. If you want to talk about other stuff, feel free. If you just want to get out and feel human for an afternoon without saying a word, feel free.
Accessibility/Directions
If you don't have a car, S.F. muni route 76 goes there on Sundays. Looks like the bus drops off at Fort Cronkhite, which is a good part of a mile away, so if anybody's taking the bus please say so and we can meet over there.
With a car, it's not far off 101... see http://www.nps.gov/goga/pobo.htm for exact directions.
