Sunday blessings
A moonset, good friends and fascinating storm clouds: Sunday morning marks day #3 of enjoying observing the movement of the low pressure and front. This morning we were blessed with a beautiful moonset at sunrise, that is until the moon dipped down into the deep frontal wall of clouds. We enjoyed talking story down at […]

Hello, there. At sunrise this morning we rolled down the hill to the ocean and enjoyed the gusty wind and pelting rain when a squall moved in. The surf is on the rise. Back here at home, we’re working on creative projects and enjoying listening to the rain. Thanks for stopping by and taking a […]

New Pendoflex quad for Matt
When Matt picked up his new Pendoflex quad, he brought some wonderful yellowtail that he had caught. The fish was so tasty, thanks, Matt!

The darker keels have an inside foil […]
Sunrise coastal cruise
