Carolyn Andre photographed the sunset from her home on The Sea Ranch.
And look at Sunday's sunrise - it was glorious too. Roxanne Holmes took the photo on the left, and Rozanne Rapozo took the one on the right.
Thanks to Carolyn, Roxanne and Rozanne for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
Today has been cool with some fog along the immediate coast. Sunshine this afternoon!
When there are clouds to reflect the sunset, such beauty can be had. Adrian Bennett took this photo from her place at The Sea Ranch.
Adrian wrote, “My camera phone can’t capture the true beauty of this sunset but still pretty good! I am thankful that I am lucky enough to live with beauty everywhere.”
That’s a wonderful way to describe the Mendonoma Coast – living with beauty everywhere.
Another storm moved in yesterday afternoon bringing over a half inch of rain. 6.38 inches so far at Rick's and my place in Anchor Bay!
Last night's sunset was simply amazing, jaw-droppingly beautiful. I took this photo from our front deck. Fire in the sky!
Yesterday morning I took a walk on the Gualala Bluff Trail. The Gualala River is nice and full from the recent rains. It is still "closed" to the Pacific Ocean by the big sandbar. But more rain is coming in next week so perhaps the river will breach then. We'll be watching!
It's a spectacular day today, temps in the 70's. If you celebrate Thanksgiving, as I do, then let me wish you Happy Thanksgiving. If you don't celebrate Thanksgiving, then I hope you will give thanks for the beauty of the Mendonoma Coast!
Roxanne Holmes recently photographed a beautiful sunset off Shell Beach, at The Sea Ranch.
And Perry Hoffman photographed the sweet pinks and yellows of a sunrise from his Gualala home.
Thanks to Roxanne and Perry for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
Sunny and cool today with very little wind...and achingly beautiful.
A Mendonoma sunset is something to be savored. This is what John Wall saw from his Sea Ranch home last week. Isn't beautiful?
I asked John if those were Brown Pelicans resting on the island and he said yes! Brown Pelicans are now headed southward. They are being seen here in very large numbers.
Bonus photo from John! Dash, the dog, points out a vole or gopher. What a dog!
Thanks to John for allowing me to share his photos with you here.
Smoke from fires far to our north drifted in overnight...ugh. And it's quite warm, over 80 degrees at Rick's and my place in Anchor Bay. Cooler weather is predicted and even a chance of sprinkles on Friday. So, hopefully the smoke will be fleeting.
