One hundred and fifty years ago, famed Bay Area ar

One hundred and fifty years ago, famed Bay Area architect Julia Morgan was born in 1872. America’s first independent, licensed woman architect, Morgan left a significant legacy in Marin County, including several buildings that are still serving the purposes she designed them for over a century ago. Her most famous project, the spectacular Hearst Castle built for William Randolph Hearst, draws more than 750,000 visitors each year (it recently re-opened after a two-year closure), who marvel at the property’s grand rooms and iconic Neptune and Roman pools. Morgan has left not only a tangible legacy in Marin County and beyond, but has also influenced the work of many present-day architects.

Two years ago today was a very different time. It was the heart of the pandemic, fires were raging across California and the world felt like it was ending (maybe not so different) — and it certainly looked like the apocalypse, as just one glance at photos from "the day the sky turned orange" can attest to.

Here are a few of the amazing photos we featured during that time, with the first photo by @bersonphotos, also featuring images by @chrislayda, @gedrobertson, @vincentleophoto, @gregoryd1, @gisellemendozarocha, and @suzlipman

It's going to be hot this Labor Day weekend! Why not take a trip that's oriented towards cooling off? Here are some of our favorite cool pools, all driving distance from the Bay Area, with parking and facilities nearby, too. Jump in!

As we settle into early fall in Marin, the coastal fog diminishes, bringing warm days and clear nights, offering plentiful opportunities to observe the night sky. This simple activity has fascinated humankind for as long as we’ve existed on Earth.

In Marin County, the desire to preserve this celestial view recently prompted the Point Reyes National Seashore, the town of Point Reyes Station and the surrounding communities to join forces and apply to become an official International Dark Sky Reserve, a title bestowed on only a handful of regions in the world.
