By popular demand, we move on from the blackberries (which have long since ripened and been consumed, probably by yours truly on subsequent walks)to our most recent outing, a spur of the moment trip to Pillar Point, near Half Moon Bay. What promised to be a lovely warm, cloudless day turned gray and breezy, but not very cold. We, together with my mother, devoured a lunch of crab sandwich, chowder and crab-stuffed avocado, then took a walk around the refurbished marina area. There is a fancy new mall, almost entirely vacant, crowding out the old fish markets and chowder shops. We dropped in on friends, who were more than polite inviting us in with no warning at all, then made our way down highway 1 to Santa Cruz, then back to the south bay via highway 17. Not bad for a day without a plan!
PS -- live crab were $2 a pound.....
