I only got a few photos because I was late for the sunset but also because while I was on the beach shooting, this random guy who had been watching me walked over and struck up a conversation. Turns out he lived in Sacramento and was traveling down the 101 south from business in Portland on his way home. I've never seen this guy in my life and probably won't ever again-- it was just a random encounter on a nearly empty beach-- and it turned out that we knew a dozen or so people in common, mostly former colleagues of mine who have since retired. Is that crazy? Just some random guy passing through, stopped at Trinidad to take a look, and we've got like two degrees of separation. Trinidad is a lovely place.
