Monday July 6, 2020 Baxter and I had a quiet morning on the headland following the Independence Day weekend. There was a great low tide exposing Trinidad State Beach and the fish are running so the boat launch parking lot was full. It looks like the upwelling caused by last week’s wind has brought the …
Tuesday June 30, 2020 This morning was stunning. Sunny and warm with the perfect kayaking conditions in the bay. For those who planned ahead it was a great morning to be on the water; nice and flat with no wind. I wished I was out there. As I circled the headland the latest national news …

Friday June 19, 2020 Baxter and I got out this morning “on time” resulting in a glorious walk by ourselves on Trinidad Head. We don’t have actual assigned time slots but the other fur baby owners also seem to be keeping a self prescribed schedule which paces us all apart. This routine makes for a …

While walking the trails my biggest fear is of falling and breaking bones or spraining something. My right ankle has been sprained numerous times during my life …
Tuesday May 19, 2020 Because I was consumed yesterday by the 40th anniversary of the MSH eruption, today’s post reflects both Monday and Tuesday’s walks. One involved rain and the later was graced with sunshine. Optimism and gratitude are the words I plan to focus on this week. I’m worn down by all the Covid-19 …
Friday May 15, 2020 Happy Friday! Congratulations, we made it thru another week of shelter-in-place. This morning brought forth what looks to be an incredibly beautiful day. The sun is shining and the clouds have parted bringing back blue sky’s and the deep blue colored ocean water. It’s a picture postcard kinda day. A great …
Thursday May 14, 2020 Ok. I confess. We took a break this week because well, I wimped out. I didn’t feel like dealing with the rain. Or call it fallout from Covid-19 anxiety. Take your pick. Both are true. Like most, I’ve had my fill of news and politics. I have to turn it off. …
