Darkening-gray and chilly this early-evening Monday on California’s north coast. Rain forecast starting Wednesday, running through the weekend, and on-and-off the next 10 days — end of a way-pleasant Indian Summer. John Oliver had a nifty piece last night on our weather reporting, check it out at the Guardian. This has become my theme song:…
Straight-up: Nit-twit mobsters in play: The cover for the upcoming edition of the New Yorker depicts President Trump and his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani as mobsters who are murdering Uncle Sam.

Gorgeous Wednesday here on California’s north coast — a dog run at Little River State Park in the AM was picture-perfect with just a hint of mist north-and-south far-off down the beach. Warm today, too, bordering on hot, at least for us along the shoreline. Heavy news the last couple of days, a spark of…
Wet and breezy this late-evening Wednesday on California’s north coast — heard/witnessed some thunder and lightning a little while ago in our first real storm of the season. Dark clouds threatened our dog run mid-day at Ma-le’l Dunes, but we only felt a few droplets right at the end of our walk. The beach was…
Rainy and gray this early-evening Tuesday here on California’s north coast — more like a drizzle, but will get you soaking wet in minutes.

Sunny, breezy and maybe a bit chilly this Wednesday evening here on California’s north coast. Although the feeling today was a bit on the cool side, we did manage to hit 70-degrees in early afternoon, and the next two days are expected to be even warmer. Indian summer it seems — dog-run to Ma-le’l Dunes…
Breezy sunshine this late-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast. In the wacky world in which we currently inhabit, the expert wisdom of the T-Rump, from last January: ‘“Having a drone fly overhead — and I think nobody knows much more about technology, this type of technology certainly, than I do.”’ (Source). Fast forward to yesterday,…
Sunshine this late-afternoon Monday here on California’s north coast — been a fine Labor Day, with a chilly component found in the shade. Fog this morning beach-side on a dog walk at Ma-le’l Dunes; the gray burned-off a bit on occasion to let some sunshine glow, creating some warmth, but overhead mostly all misty-ash. Our…
Cloudy and chilly this early-evening Wednesday here on California’s north coast. We had a bit of sun during the day, but by early afternoon the sky was just about all gray. A morning dog run at the Ma-le’l Dunes was warm and once again exerting… Anniversary of sorts today, a way-surreal moment from long, long…
