It was chilly again this morning but the sun was bright and warm.

Wow, we had an early morning downpour, 0.50 inches, and 48.52 season to date. More rain coming starting Sunday afternoon. But when you look at next week, after Monday it looks like spring is arriving early on the Mendonoma Coast!
Meet Cookie, the Cooks Beach sea monster. Michael Combs recently photographed it.
Cookie looks friendly with that smile, though perhaps a little wooden.
Cooks Beach is a lovely pocket beach at the north end of Gualala, Why wouldn't a sea monster want to hang out there?

Windy again today with clear skies.
Carolyn Case wrote, "[Two weeks ago], I stopped by Cooks Beach. There were no other visitors, and as I walked towards the water’s edge at the north end, I suddenly heard a barking behind me and saw a large Sea Lion heading toward the water. I think we were both surprised."
"It was an exciting sighting but I was sorry to have disturbed it; it must have been resting among the rocks as I had walked right by without noticing it.” Several others had seen this male California Sea Lion and wondered if he was injured. But CC’s photos show what appears to be a healthy Sea Lion. There is an active colony of male Sea Lions living on Fish Rocks off Anchor Bay.

It's chilly today - the wind is cold. Lots of clouds drifting by with intermittent sunshine...and achingly beautiful!
Eric Duff's beautiful photo of the sunset on Oct 21 was taken at Cooks Beach. Isn't it lovely?

It's cooler today and rain is predicted overnight. As I write this mid-afternoon, the sun is shining with just a few clouds passing by. The surf is telling the story, though. Huge swells are hitting the coastline, sending white water up in the air. The ocean is really roaring today!
