Summer is Santa Cruz County, chilly fog with a touch of wind. That’s beach weather.On South County beaches, often your only company will be other walkers, the odd surfer and people fishing.
There are always treasures to be discovered.
And the feeling of being out, moving, enjoying empty beaches.
The past couple of days the sky has been dark and sinister. Yellow, orange, red on the color spectrum. Yesterday people were driving with headlights on at midday. At 4:00 PM it was dark. “Strange days have found us.”
Early this morning, Rio Del Mar.The tide was low and the air was the cleanest it’s been in days.It felt good to be out early, stretching the legs and moving freely.
After a crazy early morning filled with wind, rain, thunder and lightening. Alice and I set out early for a Sunday walk.The Wilder Ranch Ohlone Bluff Trail was at it’s best. A bit of summer rain, a cool breeze, an ever changing sky and largely empty. It was great to be out experiencing the unusual Central Coast weather.
