Anne Mary Schaefer wrote, “It was a grey, drizzly day when, as I was walking on the path, a shaft of sunlight pierced the grey. I paused to follow the shaft of light to see the bushes and trees edged in golden sunset light, and caught my breath to see a Stag standing proudly perfectly illuminated.”

When Anne Mary got home and looked at her photo, she saw a second Buck. She wrote, “It was an amazing moment and light, with a hidden bonus. The light disappeared as they both bounded off, leaving me with a feeling of renewed wonder at such a magical moment at Manchester Beach campground.”

Thanks to Anne Mary for allowing me to share her photo with you here. Anne Mary is a talented pet photographer too. Here's her websiste: https://www.pawpawrazzipetphotography.com/

If you missed my posts over the past four days, it was because we had a long power outage at our house. I'm glad to be back up and running thanks to the hardworking PG&E repair people. We have had  LOT of rain, over 37 inches season to date. The waterfalls are magnificent now.
