February's Fun in the Sun (sometimes)

I am bummed that I haven't shared this past week (+) of walks. It has been a wonderful adventure. We finally explored the road that brought me down Jacoby Creek Road in the first place. I am excited to report that it is as great as I heard. It is a wide logging road, level for a while and then quickly climbs for about 3/4 mile (i don't really know if that's accurate) to level off again. That's where we stopped. Can't wait to explore it more later this week.

This week we were joined by Poncho, a lovely pooch in need of a care taker while his family travels abroad.

The weather allowed for lovely days at the beach. We discovered interesting sights.
You would not believe the things that wash up on the beach. A whole Truck!
Pick up your trash!


I finally got to photograph my favorite stump that grows from sand!
This is the weirdest winter I recall enduring in Humboldt County. It is a mix of icy cold fronts and an unusual amount of warm fronts. It's better than summer this February. I am not complaining. Even the rainy days don't cut too badly to you bones. But still it's chilly and I am grateful to have shelter to return to everyday.

Oh and by the way....

My Camera is a inexpensive ($40ish) Fuji-film FinePix 6.3 mega pixel. I got it 2-3 years ago an have been pretty satisfied with it. (some times i wish there was a faster shutter, but i am just discovering the differenet setting options.
