We drove from Truckee's Sierra Nevada mountains down to Sonoma six days after the Gilroy mass shooting, the day of the El Paso mass shooting, and the day before the Dayton mass shooting. Back to U.S. reality.
We spent two nights in Sonoma with longtime Z-family friends, M & J, who took us hiking at Point Reyes with S's sister and her friend G from San Francisco.
