Only if you go to Dillon Beach! We're doing an outing to the coast for an early afternoon picnic and bbq at Tomales Oyster Co. and going to send it big with Me, Yoko, Curt, Michelle and whoever else is there and go off on our smallest kites. We're bringing some friends and will try to get photos & video.

Yuri, head out to Sherman instead. At least the water is a bit warmer there. Besides, if you get cold you can always take shelter and read a book in the plush outhouses.
