30 miles of desert

I'm back on the mainland after three days on the Channel Islands off the California cost. Lots of excellent hiking on isolated shores brought relaxation and great photos. Although, after about 30 miles of hiking with wet sand in my shoes, my left foot's a bit worse for wear....

A run-in with a miniature skunk, a close encounter with a rare breed of fox, and hang out time with Dad and brothers made it a memorable island adventure.
