These orange beauties are endemic to California and are now only found on the North Coast. A visit to Salt Point State Park would be a great choice for the holiday weekend.

Thanks to Susy for allowing me to share her photos with you here.

Super foggy this morning but the sun has chased the fog back over the ocean. It's a beautiful afternoon here on the Mendonoma Coast.
