October 11th and 12th saw the Northern Lights appearing off the Mendonoma Coast. Paul Kozal was at the ready!

Paul went to the White Barn at The Sea Ranch. Along with the Northern Lights, he photographed the setting Moon and the Milky Way. Yes, Paul is an over-achiever! And we're all thankful for that. Such beauty!

Thanks to Paul for allowing me to share his photo with you here. To see much more of Paul's photography, here is the link to his website: https://www.paulkozal.com/ or visit his gallery, Studio 391 in Gualala.

We had some rain showers this morning and beautiful rainbows too. This afternoon it's sunny with some clouds and a chill wind. The forest smells wonderful from yesterday's rain. A little over 1/4 inches. More to come!

Last week skies were clear for watching the Perseid Meteor Shower. Paul Kozal outdid himself with this photo of the Milky Way and a streaking meteor on the right.

Paul took this photo at Cooks Beach, a lovely pocket beach just north of Gualala. To learn more about this beach, here is the Redwood Coast Land Conservancy's website: https://rclc.org/cooks-beach/

Today has been warm with no wind, a beautiful day on the Mendonoma Coast!

Warm, sunny days morph into star-spangled nights on the beautiful Mendonoma Coast. Craig Tooley was at Green Cove on The Sea Ranch Friday night and he photographed this gorgeous sight - the Milky Way.

You can see a meteor to the right of the galaxy, and the afterglow of Friday night's sunset - just lovely! Thanks to Craig for allowing me to share his photo with you here. To see much more of Craig's nature photography, here is his website: http://www.ruffimage.com

It's a little cooler today, thank goodness. It's sunny and clear, and the fog is still AWOL.

Don Chigazola captured this beautiful sight - Shell Beach, which is on The Sea Ranch, and the Milky Way.

A beautiful work of art!

Thanks to Don for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

The smoke is much less today. We're looking forward to a nice westerly breeze to disperse the smoke.

Paul Kozal was out late at night making magic with his photography. You can see a meteor on the right, the iconic Lighthouse we all love, and the Milky Way splashed across the night sky. So lovely.

It's pretty darn warm at our place today. We melt when the temps get near 90 degrees. It was that hot yesterday but today has a cooling breeze. Come on, breeze! oh, we had quite a lightning show early this morning. I hope to show you some photos of that event soon.
