Friday, at 8:14pm, watch the full moon rise over the ocean (sunset is at 8:12pm, so beautiful views both east and west!).
Previewing Bay Houses
Early morning kayaking before work: a completely different perspective of bay properties from this angle!
Mid-day Storm
A wild storm rolled through Avalon and Stone Harbor this afternoon. Â High winds toppled deck furniture and trash cans, and heavy rain caused street flooding.
There were reports of a few lightning strikes – including an Avalon Beach Patrol boat!
Temperatures dropped (thankfully!), the rain water drained quickly, and the sun has returned.  Should be a nice evening…
Surfers
After an unsettled weather day Wednesday, the sky cleared just in time for an evening walk. Â Fun to watch the surfers off the 25th Street beach in Avalon.
