Scared of Fright
August 7, 2014Fog bound Thursday morning here on California’s north coast, and quiet. Only folks up right now are insomniacs, meth-heads and me. At least the weekend is only hours away. Life nowadays appears as if on…
Rain and Fire

Monday Mirage
July 7, 2014Ground fog and a bit warm this way-too-early Monday on California’s north coast as another work week starts whether we like it or not — not! Those last two days appear much-much shorter than those…
