Trouble

Yes, yes I did have to run errands in the rain, again. But… the hills are starting to get GREEN again! I cannot emphasize this enough: YAY!!

My favorite Tomales person on transit had a cooler that was broken down and the wheels were gone and they were just dragging it along. I gave them a new cooler and never had to pay for tomalles again!!! Best investment ever for a TriMet bus driver #portland

Cows!

The ocean was LOUD today.

Pacific Grove, CA

Some houses on Ocean View Boulevard that I would consider buying if I magically inherited many millions of dollars.

I just had to use my dog’s middle name when yelling at her so you know it’s getting real around here this morning.

I had such a nice walk today: Cool but not cold, cloudy, no need for sunglasses Very few cars, except I keep passing or being passed by the same Amazon delivery truck as we wind through the neighborhood In the distance I can hear pings and cheers from the baseball field

Today’s walk was rainy but calm. I was able to use the track around the playing fields since there’s no school and no sports today. Just me and the crows most of the time.

Today’s view while out walking

I made it up “the big hill” without stopping and my reward is “Cows!”.

How is it 11:15 am already?!?! Ohh. 😐

Along the walking path today.

From yesterday evening’s walk… I wish I could just fly away like that when I don’t want to interact with someone.

Today’s walk. The local “waterfall” is barely a trickle today, but the hills are still green.

My Joseph’s Coat climbing rose is blooming.

New metal bunny statue waiting to be taken outside for a spray of protective clear coat. It looks like it’s watching the rain!

After 2+ years of requesting the CDC to stop using their misleading "all shades of blue" COVlD map, they have switched to using an ethical and sensible color scheme. This is a tremendous public health good that will save lives.

Thunderstorms and now hail. Not a typical April in Northern California. The good news is that the birds did an outstanding job picking where to build their nest.
