After doing its summertime impersonation of a lake, the Pacific Ocean has come to life. Waves have begun crashing onto bluffs, sand and rocks. Richard Kuehn's home overlooks Gualala Point Island. He recently took these photos.

You can see we are having beautiful clear weather, albeit windy. This is a great time to be on the Mendonoma Coast.

Thanks to Rich for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
