Sometimes you look at the sky and can't quite believe what you are seeing. That's what it must have been like for Kathy Haas a week or so ago. She photographed this beautiful sight.

Along a forest path, there is this spot where a beautiful Red Clintonia is beginning to bloom. It is a member of the Lily family so note the big lily leaves. On the lower right is a Feathery False Solomon Seal in full bloom. There are several others nearby. We got 0.13 inches of rain on Friday - not a lot, for sure, but you can see the moisture on these plants!

Thanks to Kathy for allowing me to share her cloud photo with you here.

Today, Sunday, is sunny with a fog bank over the ocean. It's breezy again today!

Sunsets are beautiful this time of year. But after an early-in-the-year rainstorm, we have clouds to give us more drama. Gloria Wood photographed this beautiful sight. Kind of looks like a painting, don't you think?

Several weeks earlier Adrian Adams photographed these "cotton candy" clouds.

Cloud and sunset watching are a Mendonoma Coast tradition!

Thanks to Gloria and Adrian for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

Another spectacular Autumn day here.

Cloud watching is a Mendonoma Coast tradition. Tricia Schuster captured this beautiful sight over The Sea Ranch.

These are clouds to dream under!

Thanks to Tricia for allowing me to share her photo with you here.

Nothing but blue skies today, but lots of wind!

Spring, nearly over, doesn't know...

Several weeks ago we had monsoonal moisture drifting up from the south. It made for a beautiful cloud show as the sun began to set. I took this photo from our deck in Anchor Bay.

Some Mendonoma loveliness for you today...

We received some much needed rain last night and today. We received 1.75 inches of rain - hooray. Here's a photo of the early morning sky before a big thunderstorm dropped a 1/2 inch of rain on us. You can see the nearly full moon above the cloud formation.

And here's some lingering showers over the ocean from this afternoon.

The sunset tonight could be awesome.
