More shots from the kayak on the Carquinez Strait

More shots from the kayak on the Carquinez Strait.  These are photos that I thought might be interesting to someone else, but that I didn't like enough to post on flickr.com.

This is from the occupation of the Glen Cove waterfront park area by the Miwok, Ohlone, Patwin, and other indigenous peoples, due to a dispute over the Glen Cove shell mound(s).  (Please feel free to correct me if I have this wrong somehow.)

Crockett, west Contra Costa County, California.

Marker in Southampton Creek.  There was another marker in the same condition on the other side of the waterway, and a sign so weathered that I wasn't able to read it.  I suppose the message was "GO AWAY GET OUT OF HERE WE DON'T WANT YOU GET LOST," or words to that effect.

Oslo Bulk 8, Singapore, at the C&H dock in Crockett.

I was going to make this another fake Mono Lake shot on flickr, but I don't think I'll bother, since no on seems to get the joke.  (That is, they think it really is Mono Lake, or they just don't care.)

Various photos from the Carquinez Strait

Glen Cove, not shot from the kayak

 These are from-the-kayak photos (except the Glen Cove shot) that I didn't like enough to post on flickr.

I think this is part of a sunken boat near the Crockett marina

Looking upstream from near Glen Cove - it's not all tankers, C&H, and bridges
