Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

Yellow mustard in bloom all up and down this hillside on Union Road, near the intersection at Highway 156.

Sky Floater
The clouds were glorious this past week in Hollister, particularly on Thursday. Doesn't this cloud look like a guy happily floating on his back?

Last week, I posted a glance of Fremont's Peak from Hollister. Today, you can see how part of Hollister looks from Fremont's Peak.
What do you think that body of water is in the foreground?
