The earth is wet, the moss on the trees alive and vibrant once again, the creeks flowing and our two recent “atmospheric river” rainfalls are the talk of the town. You can feel the sweet vibe in the air, conversing with smiling neighbors …after a tragic 212 days without rain amidst a major drought.

The trails are glistening…at Samuel P. Taylor, a spritely walk along Pioneer Tree Trail leads to it’s vast cathedral of redwoods, The almost overflowing lake at Bon Tempe reservoir up in Sky Oaks, and of course the effervescent waterfalls at the end of Cascade Canyon and Cataract Falls can’t help but bring us Marinites delight.

They say that we might not get another significant rainfall this winter but who knows…so go out and enjoy it now while it’s here… ❤
