Here we are heading through town on the way out.
And here we are getting out.
Mostly Natives Nursery, one of my favorites, is in the town of Tomales. We visited the nursery before and you may have seen Tomales in the movies:
"Much of the 2001 movie Bandits was filmed in and around Tomales, as were the opening shots of Mumford (1999), and parts of Scream (1996), and Village of the Damned (1995)."Well, I saw Scream.
They were having a big fall sale, and I wish I'd spent more money.
More money on grasses...
And a Dawn Redwood.
Metasequoia can grow in pots for years.
Tomales is a tiny town...
near lovely Tomales Bay
where you can paddle or sail
and have oysters and beer.

Lovely grasses. What DID you buy? Or are you saving that for another post?

I bought one grass, but not that lovely orange one, an Omphalodes, an erigeron and a pink yarrow from bouthern California islands.
Those dawn redwoods are bee-yoo-ti-ful. I just visited a huge one at Lotusland, and it made me want tons of space to plant a mixed grove with those and Grevillea robusta and maybe some Catalina ironwoods...
I quite enjoyed the visit to the Mostly Natives Nursery, with the lovely grass and flowers, as well as the town of Tomales. The bay reminds me of Bodega bay.
Yeah, I wanted the whole tableful of grasses when I saw that photo! But I would settle for a day on that bay... wow. No wonder people want to live in California.
Maybe a metasequoia could live in a pot in Texas, too? I'll take one of those and also the one of those chairs with the built in roof.
Nice tour, Chuck. I didn't see Scream but saw Mumford when it was new.

Someday I want to visit California, and that's a stop for sure!
