Mountain Play

This Sunday afternoon was a great Bay Area day for many reasons. It was sunny, we were outdoors, and we were among friends. I went to my first Mountain Play today. Every summer for the past 95 years, the Mountain Play Association in Marin County (North of SF) has produced an outdoor theatrical experience in an ampitheather cut into the side of Mt. Tamalpias. My friend Kim invited me to join her group and it was a very enjoyable day. We parked part way up the mountain, then set out on a fairly short, but hilly hike to the ampitheater. Kim and her husband Aaron brought cheese crackers and other delicious snacks. There was plenty of water and a little wine too. We all sprayed on sunblock and settled on our blankets for the Wizard of Oz. Here are a few photos from the afternoon.
