Mike Nelson is a talented drone pilot. He photographed the raging, muddy Gualala River after the recent big storm.

The Gualala River after the river of rain, medium version by Mike Nelson

Here is a link to Friends of Gualala River, where a longer version is shared. Mike photographed some of the beautiful waves off of the river. I think you will really enjoy watching it.

Here is a photo of the flooded Gualala River that I took two years ago to give you an idea what the river can look like after a great deal of rain. I photographed the river from Gualala Point Regional Park on a very stormy day.

Thanks to Mike for allowing me to share his video with you here, and for allowing FoGR to share his longer version. Mike is the owner of MD Electric and Solar here in Gualala, https://www.mdelectricsolar.com/

We are waiting for the next couple of storms. One is to arrive tonight, and another one tomorrow, Sunday, and into Monday.

Robin Applegarth created this video in homage of our mother, Mother Earth.

It's seems like Mother Earth is being attacked on nearly every front. With the fires in the Amazon, climate change affecting everyone including animals and plants, this administration's efforts to degrade environmental laws...it's rather overwhelming, isn't it? We must, each of us, pledge to do what we can to help.

Here on the Mendonoma coast, many of us are trying to stop a very harmful timber harvest plan in the Gualala River's floodplain. You can learn more about this at Friends of Gualala River's website: http://gualalariver.org/

Thanks to Robin for allowing me to share her beautiful video with you here.
