Welcome storms have been hitting the Mendonoma Coast. Those who love big crashing waves head for the bluffs to take a look at the Pacific Ocean in action. Between storms can bring some of the loveliest weather. Janet Burch recently photographed some beautiful waves off of The Sea Ranch.

The Gualala River is running high and muddy, such a welcome sight. After our bone dry January, the rains of February have been a blessing. May they continue in March!

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

Paul Batchelder was by the north fork of the Gualala River, just above the green bridge, yesterday. He saw a happy sight - Steelhead headed up the river. You can see two fish on the upper left side of Paul's photos.The photos aren't the clearest, but the news sure is welcome.

To show you what the Green Bridge looks like, here are two photos taken by Kay Martin.

All the rain we have received in February has revived the Gualala and Garcia Rivers. It is a joy to see them running strong and supporting endangered Steelhead. Hooray for Mother Nature!

Thanks to Paul and Kay for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
