Vacation road trip with the family from Southern California to Washington along the coast. We spent six days making the trek. Spent most of one morning just in San Francisco...

As we headed up the coast we tried to hit as many lighthouses as possible...

As we continued up the coast we had several good sunsets (boy those are hard to get!), sun, wind and landscape. Here are a few more...

    Wow, nice series. 6 days just does NOT seem long enough, though! There's so much to see along the way. What an amazing coast.

    Steve,
    I don't know if the date qualifies, but this shot of yours looks very humble to me:

    Thank you for sharing, these are great images. I agree, 6 days is barely enough, but you did great on capturing what you could. clap.gif

    Six days doesn't seem long enough for so much. The sunset is gorgeous and
    I think I could spend days on the coast.
