Day 33: Adobe Creek to Seaport Blvd

Palo Alto Sailing Station


Day 33: Adobe Creek to Seaport Blvd
(Mountain View to Redwood City) 
Circle The Bay Part 3
January 10th 2019

16.0 miles in 3 hrs 10 mins


(Total:  360.5 miles in 79 hrs 42 mins)


One more day left on this circumnavigation after today.  I'm planning on biking to a boat launch in Redwood City, then kayaking into the heart of Inner Bair Island in San Carlos at high tide to wrap things up.

I've got to hand it to the techie culture of Mountain View and Palo Alto, there are more people out enjoying the bay, way out on the Bay Trail, than anywhere else I've seen.  They are walking, running, biking, painting.  Odd feeling not to be alone out there.

I sat and pondered all the waterfowl visiting the bay this, and got inspired to use their movement from slough to pond as a way of illustrating my own brand of techie culture.  Keep your eye on github.com/vectaport/flowgraph if you're interested in a nature-inspired presentation of a more natural model of computation, where (like the bay) it's all about the flow.
