  • Direct Hit

    I park near this yellow pickup truck when I take Leo to the beach, but probably no more. During the latest rain/wind storm, a cypress tree made a direct hit on the truck. It has been a rough winter.

  • Trust

    I took this photo in January, 2020 of our rescue dog Molly letting a rescue dog we were fostering put his mouth around her snout. We eventually adopted that dog, Leo, who has bonded well with Molly as well as Teddy. At the time of the photo Leo was still in a puppy phase, putting…

    Everyone took a left to a wine tasting event yesterday while I went right on a road that was definitely less traveled. I didn’t see another vehicle for 20 minutes in an area known as the Sacramento Delta. But I did see herons and egrets stalking prey in the marsh that runs along the endless…

  • My Davd Crosby Moment

    I was released from two years of active duty in the Army on June 19, 1971. Friends threw a party for me that evening, kind of a what do I do next affair. After everyone left I listened to David Crosby’s newest song, “Laughing” with Jerry Garcia on pedal steel guitar. “I thought I met…

  • Sacramento Trees Fall by the Hundreds

    The Sacramento Department of Public Works says over 1,000 trees have fallen since the New Year Eve. William Land Park looks like it was bombed. Many of these trees have withstood storms and drought for over 80 years. But “climate change” in the form of drought followed by relentless rain and high winds proved to…
