Bodega Bay

The other day Dave and I went to Bodega Bay and oh what glorious weather we had!  It can be very foggy and cold there so when it’s nice out, it’s worth a trip there to enjoy the beauty without the inclement weather.

You might recognize the name Bodega Bay because Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds” was filmed there.  We didn’t go up there to be attacked by birds though haha….I wanted to take a picture of a fishing vessel that had run ashore on Salmon Creek Beach just a couple of months ago in September.  I had seen pictures of this boat just a few weeks ago where the vessel was a lot more vertical.  It seems the waves are making it tip a bit and I’m glad I was able to get it before the whole thing possibly goes sideways!

Should you wish to read about how the boat was abandoned and how the captain tried to flee, you can read about the boat and what happened here:  https://goo.gl/evirI4.  I’ve also included a small gallery of iPhone photos just for fun.  They are not that great but I thought you might be interested and I’ve included a map to show where Bodega Bay is in relation to San Francisco.
