We woke up this morning to snow in the hills directly behind the Petaluma/Rohnert Park area of California. There were a lot of people taking pictures
of the sight.
El Pescadero. Tail end of NOB storms past week. Mostly cirrus and windy. Today storm clouds, cool breezy 75 inside. Yesterday hot sun felt
like low 80s cloudless small breeze, Paradise.
Come on down.
US Marines: providing enemies of America an opportunity to die for their country since 1775.
What I say before any important decision.
F*ck it.
So understand dont waste your time always searching for those wasted years
face up and make your stand and realize that your living in the golden years
I spent the day dealing with teh Pole Line Road and in the morning we saw dark clouds over the high mountains SW, and the rest of the day it was
partly cloudy. Ran my ac in the PM. As far as on the ground, in the washes we saw tire tracks which to me means light rain and no water flow. I saw a
few puddles on the solid rock places.
Pretty much the same west of San Felipe. Diablo was shrouded in clouds and little to no rail resulted to the east.
That house is owned by a family friend, I've stayed there many times during the summer, although never in winter. It's right across the street from
the lifts at the Main Lodge!
We stayed a night in Lone Pine 2 weekends ago. After dinner we tried to drive up to the Whitney base camp. I hiked it about 10 years ago and was
telling my kids about it. My 16 drove us up, but the road was out where it started to get interesting.
I feel majorly cheated that we missed all the snow that has hit the last 2 weeks.

AC in the afternoon is always a nice alternative to shivering all day.

I've done an annual backpack/flyfishing trip to the Cottonwood Lakes every July for many years. Should be spectacular this year with all this snow,
like a couple years ago. There were literally hundreds of golden trout spawning in the outlet pools of Lake #3. Incredible sight to see.
If you've never driven up to Horseshoe Meadows, it's well worth the trip. The road up the side of the Sierra is an "E" ticket ride in itself.

Just did some reading on the trail. Looks pretty interesting.
