It's raining....it's snowing? This week finally feels like winter. Really, am I the only one that cares about our California vegetation? Everyone needs to stop bitching about being cold and wet, just wear a jacket for a few days and then enjoy 360 other days of sun.  These pictures are from January 19, 2010 and the first one is interesting to me because like the dork I am, I remember thinking "whoah, is that snow?". The tide was just extremely high, and the waves were crashing right before the road, leaving a layer of foam. It doesn't snow here, just wishful thinking upon first glance.

The day was December 16, 2009. The weather was mild and my mood was upbeat. Take the dog to the beach? Sure, why not. So I'm waiting for the sunset and everyone is frolicking in the sand, but my little punk of a dog just couldn't play nice. He was growling and snapping at the other friendly canine, so I looked at the clouds and decided I was over it. Fifteen minutes later we made it home and the sky looked insane. That sort of electric pink doesn't happen all the time. Even if I got in my car I wouldn't have been able to make it back in time. So guess who gets the blame? And that is the story of why I no longer have a dog....Just kidding; really it's a family dog so he lives with my mom now, but even if I visit it's unlikely I'd take him for beach sunsets anymore...

THAT'S A WRAP.

December 31, 2011: such a beautiful day, and a sunset to match.

 

 

 

HO HO HO

December 25, great sunset after many cloudless days. Once the sky was turning pink none of the surfers were getting out of the water, which would have made a nice silhouette on the last shot. But I'm happy nonetheless. Hopefully I'll get in at least one more before saying sayonara to 2011.
