Tomales Bay is a magical place. The drive is windy, the scenery is simple, but the oysters are phenomenal. Farmed fresh and sold by the bag, I have never had oysters quite as good. Hearing of this spot years ago from a friend, the boys and I decided to try it out Memorial Day Weekend 2011, and we have returned every May thereafter. On our first trip we had no idea what to expect. We brought modest picnic supplies and nothing in the way of oyster shucking tools or sauces. In the years that followed, we went about it in a very different way, at times bringing what felt like most of the refrigerator and spice cabinet. One year even involved a raucous party bus! I am grateful for my memories at Tomales Bay; for the music, the sunshine, the serenity, and of course, delicious oysters!
