Most of the crew camped out near Dillon beach on Thursday, only to be awoken by pillaging cows from the nearby pasture. Not to be deterred from a delicious breakfast, the team made their way to Point Reyes Station for fresh pastries before heading out on the water.
After leisurely paddling to the island over the course of 3 hours, it dawned on everyone that there was only an hour left before being they had to be back in Marshall to return the kayaks. The following hour was a brutal and humbling workout that will not be recalled as anyone’s favorite experience of the trip, but it made what was to come that much better.
Lunch at the Marshall Store was the perfect tonic for tired bodies. The oysters and pulled pork sandwiches were a fantastic way to wrap up the trip. Going kayaking as a group was a great way to relax, release, and be reminded of what a privilege it is to live northern California.
