Nicasio in the morning. Can't think of a finer place. West Marin County. Nicasio Reservoir is managed by Marin Municipal Water District; serving as our emergency backup reservoir, one of 6 other reservoirs in Marin;
Phoenix Lake, Lake Lagunitas, Bon Tempe, Alpine, Kent Lake, and Soulajule. Drought has dramatically lowered the level of Nicasio Reservoir (above).

Apparently, this group of pilings had been a ferry landing at one time. I'm guessing it dates from the 1920's. The Golden Gate Bridge was not finished being built until 1937, and the Bay Bridge was not completed until 1936; so there was a lot of boat travel on this upper thumb of San Francisco Bay. Cars and people crossed the bays in and on ferries before the bridges.


lets get my "stats" up -- please tell your photo-loving friends about AphtoAday. If you have a blog, link to me and I'll reciprocate.
