The season for holiday spectaculars is ending.
The Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego had lavish decorations and a Wizard of Oz themed yellow brick road and light show.
It was all free, and I can’t remember ever seeing more children so enchanted by something 😍🙏!

California dreaming.
All the leaves are brown
and the sky is grey
I’ve been for a walk
on a winters day…

It was surreal watching this thin cloud cover fan out above our heads and turning shades of red, purple and orange!
All from the comfort of my beach chair while sipping a glass of Austrian Veltliner wine.
All evenings should be that good!

Wishing all of my wonderful BlueSky friends a Happy New Year!
My hope is that 2026 will at least bring a little bit of sanity and accountability back to our country 🙏!
Also, I can’t remember seeing this many rainy days in a row in the SoCal weather forecast 😂!

A sunset we had on our last day on a local vacation.
The rise on the left horizon is actually one of the
Los Coronado islands, off the coast of Tijuana, Mexico 🇲🇽!

This sunset made the local news last night.
Seems like most locations in San Diego county got treated to a good view 🤗🙏
Mine was at the beach on Coronado Island.

As we were leaving the beach after a spectacular sunset, the Hotel Del Coronado was shining on the southern horizon in all its glory, Christmas lights turned up to eleven 😂🙏!

We were at the right place at a perfect moment… the clouds looked promising!
And then they delivered a classic, pre-storm SoCal sunset!

Right now, this spectacular sunset unfolded on our last evening on Coronado Island!
The clouds were beginning to move into the area, bringing rain in two days, but for now, they are gorgeous!

Waiting for the ferry to San Diego.
Lots of people are out today, enjoying the 72 degree weather with perfect blue skies!
Rain will return soon, just in time for the new year holiday.

We just arrived on Coronado Island, across the bay from San Diego’s waterfront, where we will stay for a few days to celebrate my wife’s

Her dad and grandpa were born here in what is now a historic house, we’re going to visit tomorrow 🤗.

During a cold storm a few years ago, I took a little drive on the icy roads the storm brought to sunny San Diego County.
These photos were taken around Lake Henshaw, at about 2500 feet elevation and about a 30 minute drive from my home.
I had the roads to myself 🤗👏🙏!

It’s rare for San Diego County to get the snow level down to 1200 feet elevation.
A few years ago, during a cold storm, we were treated to the rare sight of snow covered orange 🍊 trees about 25 miles inland from the beaches!

We had a big winter storm in the forecast for SoCal.
Here in the very southern part, we got a break after rain and high wind yesterday.
Christmas Day turned out picture perfect 🤩!
But more rain tomorrow, and we like that just as well.

The holiday season is upon us, and I’m wishing all of my BlueSky friends and fellow photographers a wonderful time, no matter how you choose to spend it 🙏!
We have a big rain storm moving in to SoCal, so the weather will not be boring 😴!
Peace to all my friends 👏🙏

A view from about halfway up the Shaffer Trail that winds its way up the cliff to the Island in the Sky section of Canyonlands NP.
This is a beautiful and exciting drive, however, you do not want to overshoot any of the hairpin turns 😱!
