Dewy Web

This was taken in the early morning in Stinson Beach, outside one of the yurts on my aunt’s property there. Her home has been featured in many magazines and catalogues because it is so stunning. I lived with her for almost a full year while I was in college. I loved living in Stinson. My commute to San Francisco was often stunning and stimulating, as I would make up games on the drive and blast whatever music my Stanford friends had introduced me to most recently. My favorite games were: see how long you can drive in neutral, and see how many cars you can get to pull over so you can pass them. (Much of the road is long, winding, and just a single lane between redwood trees and a rocky drop off into the ocean, so if you were unlucky you could get stuck behind an uneasy driver that would go well under the speed limit the whole way, with no way around them.) Some of my favorite songs from that time were by a band called Disclosure, who turned out to be terrible when I saw them live at Coachella.
