Rain, Clouds and the Sunseting over the Suisun Marsh. #solanocounty #fairfieldca #coolweather #sunset #rainydayfeels

Of course, I will have to go check these places out. :D

I love this place! See my Car? Hint: It's Maroon. Great memories were made because of the Martinez Amtrak Station. #martinezca #martinez #contracosta #amtrak #ticketoffice #amtrakstation #amtraktrip #trainstation #traveldestination #travelplans #Train #travel #travelblogger #traveling #makeithere #getoutandexplore #getoutandtravel #soakupthesun #epicviews @ Amtrak Martinez Ca

Sun peaking out from under the Rain Clouds in Solano County, California. Fairfield, Suisun, Vallejo and Vacaville, as well as most of North California got hit really hard with Rain Bands, early in the morning. It then rained off and on all day. #rain #rainydayfeels #rainphotography #rainyday #wet #cloudsofinstagram #cloudscape #wetday #raining #rainclouds #cloudporn #skyporn #fairfieldchannel26 #outdoorphotography #nature #nature_perfection #natgeo #cityoffairfieldca #solanocounty #cityofsuisun #naturephotography

A quick Snapshot of the evening Sky over Fairfield and Suisun in Solano County, California. #evening #solanocounty #natures_brilliance #nofiltersneeded #nofilters

When I first spotted this Wild old Tree, it was loaded down with large Crows, Hawks, and several other types of Birds. Kind of Scary, Eerie, and kind of Sad, this Tree is perfect for Halloween. Especially at night.

An aerial view of the City of Martinez and the Amtrak Train at the Amtrak Station. # #martinezca #martinez #contracosta #contracostacounty #amtraktrip #amtraktrain #amtrakcalifornia #norcalphotographer #travelphotographer #travelphotography #outdoorphotography #traintravel #lovetravel #lovetrain #trainaddict #travelblog #amtrakstation #travelbytrain #lovetraveling #trainsandthings @ Amtrak Martinez Ca

Tugboat and Sinking Crane on the Sacramento River Delta, in Sacramento County, just about 5 to 10 miles East of Rio Vista, California.

The Suisun Slough of the Suisun Marsh judt got a little more water added to it, when the rain storm came through. That's a good thing! #suisunmarsh #watersedge #solanocounty #natures_brilliance #naturephotography

Rainy Day over Suisun City and Fairfield, California. This photo was shot from Hwy 12 in Solano County, looking towards Suisun City and Fairfield City, California. There is a Semi in front of me and I can see the area Walmart store off in the distance. #solanocounty #fairfieldca #hwy12 #rainyday #rain #cloudscape #sunlight #Fairfield #fairfieldcalifonia #visitfairfieldca #weatherphotography @ Suisun City, California

The "Rice Fields" as so many people call them are part of the Yolo Bypass Wildlife Refuge. With over 1,100,000 acres of fish and wildlife habitat... The Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area is located within the Yolo Bypass Causeway area, and a flood control structure within the historic Yolo Basin floodplain, whose boundaries are defined by constructed levees. The Bypass carries Sacramento River water at overflow to the Delta and is operated as part of the Sacramento River Flood Control System. The Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area is located within the Yolo Bypass in Yolo County, California. The wildlife area is managed by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife with the intent of restoring and managing a variety of wildlife habitats in the Yolo Basin, a natural basin in the north part of the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta.

Sun trying to peak through the thick Clouds. Cloudy day finally brought us some much needed Rain here in Northern, California. #rain #rainyday #sunlight #cloudscape #clouds #cloudsofinstagram #fairfieldcalifonia #naturephotography

A Great White Egret on the Road, while I was going through the "Yolo Bypass Wildlife Area" Of Sacramento, California.

The further down you go into these photos, the more you will see just how pretty Alcatraz Island really is. So, were a lot of the Buildings that didn't house the Inmates. Alcatraz Prison is a Fantastic Tourist Destination. Tourist Trap? ...Yes! However, it does have a lot of fun things to see, as well as a LOT of interesting History and Famous People that was long term Convicts there.
