Is this deer's ancestors responsible for the hound's tongue that blooms every February on the hill in front of our house? Thanks deer, for the flowers. Now please eat all the broom you can find.

The manzanitas are in full bloom at China Camp State Park (Marin County). Bees and hummingbirds everywhere. Go experience them before the rains wash the flowers off.

For those wanting to chase waterfalls today: be informed about road conditions and park closures. West Marin is a mess. A glance at the pge outage map might be a good way to trip plan. Be safe. pgealerts.alerts.pge.com/outage-tools...

More inversion weather (bad air) today. At China Camp looking east, I felt like I was gazing out to sea -- couldn't even see Point Pinole. The tide was high and I could hear waves slapping against the shoreline.

My advice:

If you feel grief - take walks.
If you have a dog - take walks.
If you think too much - take walks.
If you want to be productive - take walks.
If you hate the results of the election - take walks.
If you want to maximize the time you have left in this world - TAKE WALKS.

It's a short steep climb (both directions) to get here, but the view is worth it. I'll be back when the grass greens up.

Our Bay Area redwood forests shelter bigleaf maples. You might not notice them most of the year but you will in late November! One of my favorite easy hikes this time of year is Dawn Falls Trail at Baltimore Canyon in Larkspur (Marin County). What local trails are your top picks?

Got my first "you are a lovely lady" message. Good to have an excuse to learn the report and block mechanisms.
