July 4th: Kayaking for Oysters










































Took my guests on a kayak trip Sunday afternoon/evening, July 4th weekend. Launched from my brother's house in Inverness across Tomales Bay (about 1 km) to Tomales Bay Oyster Farm and beached there. The ultimate West Marin local food adventure. We arrived 20 mins late and were two dollars short for a dozen smalls and a dozen extra-small oysters, but they sold them to us anyway. The ride back with the oysters was warm and flat/calm. I had never been a big fan of oysters until I had them shucked raw and fresh from the ocean. Very environmentally sustainable too.
