Seven-Years Ago (19-May-2009) — California

Gone to See America 2009 Road Trip. Day 12: San Francisco, California to Medford, Oregon — Including the northern section of the Pacific Coast Highway.

I saw a post (on Google+ now gone) by Jason Odell with an image of the Point Arena lighthouse where it is painted white. Seven years ago it wasn’t painted.
