Out
for
standard
maintainance
in
the
early
golden-
palmy
moony-
foggy
light,
down
80
and
37
to
Marin,
back
eventually
out
of
the
stratus,
through
a
fair
portion
of
beautiful
Solano,
with a loaner car to compose
Water Music: Air - "Drops".
Returning late afternoon, notice that the borrowed car has an exterior thermometer, so, note with interest the steady decline of temperatures San Francisco Bayward in Solano and Sonoma, with only a slight re-ascent towards Marin, as follows:
75 Nut Tree Road
74 Lagoon Valley
73 North Fairfield
72 Central Fairfield
71 Fairfield Bend

66 Napa River Bridge
65 Route 37 Narrows
64 Cullinen Ranch
65 Sears Point Ranch
66 Sears Point Junction Approach
67 Petaluma Plain
68 Deer Island Approach
Pick
up
the
car,
and
head
back
an amazingly circuituous route via Novato Boulevard,
past the Giant Bay Trees,
Stafford
Lake
and
bovine-
oakish
undulations
beyond
(bestrewn
with
bountiful
bouquets),
north on Point Reyes - Petaluma Road through
Hicks
and
Union
Valleys,
becoming
D Street in
Petaluma, east on Lakeville,
north on Frates,
to
Adobe
and
116,
down
canyon into Sonoma Valley,
picking up 121
and

over the
Mayacamas Mountains
(near
Stornetta's) --
into
Napa by the
Border Barns,
Domaine Carneros,
towards
Eucalyptus
Row,
River Bridge,
Wine Guy,
up
Jameson
Canyon
to
Solano,
the striking scenes semi-natural and
decidedly
not-so,
in
he
gathering
darkness,
back
on
I-80
Lagoon-Mountains-wise
and
home.
