Arch Rock And Marshall

IMG_6191 Yeah, we like Arch Rock, there’s a few posts on The Lemon featuring the arch out in Point Reyes National Seashore.  But yesterday our trip out there was motivated not only by a desire to get outside but also somewhat by the fact that it’s the only stroller-accessible hiking tail in Point Reyes National Seashore.  So we venture out to the coast again for the eight mile round trip walk, capping the day off with some of the Marshall Store’s fantastic oysters and a lamb dinner at the Bodessi’s.  The Marshall Store’s oysters have to be the best in the Bay Area, hands down!
