BEFORE heading up to
Spirit Rock in the morning for Martine and Stephen Batchelor's Halloween weekend workshop called The Secular Buddha,
I'm hanging out in Sausalito. I flew into San Francisco International Airport and took a commuter bus up to the Spencer Street Exit. It's a trip I've made may times and normally it takes about a half hour.
BUT with the
Bay Bridge out, every one has to head North over the Golden Gate Bridge to get to the Richmond Bridge further north to get to the east bay. My flight was almost two hours. This time the drive from the airport to Sausalito was also about two hours.
AND driving in Marin County is nuts right now because everyone from the other side of the bay must pass through here to get to and from the city. Hopefully, its good for businesses along the 101. And hopefully the weekend will be better traffic wise. And hopefully they will open the Bay Bridge soon.
BUT that is not why I'm posting this. I'm posting this to show you what I'm looking at as I type these words. The view behind this picture taken by Helene in October of 2008 is what I see right now, give or take 295 days or so.
