When there are clouds to reflect the sunset, such beauty can be had. Adrian Bennett took this photo from her place at The Sea Ranch.

Adrian wrote, “My camera phone can’t capture the true beauty of this sunset but still pretty good! I am thankful that I am lucky enough to live with beauty everywhere.”

That’s a wonderful way to describe the Mendonoma Coast – living with beauty everywhere.

Another storm moved in yesterday afternoon bringing over a half inch of rain. 6.38 inches so far at Rick's and my place in Anchor Bay!

Last night's sunset was simply amazing, jaw-droppingly beautiful. I took this photo from our front deck. Fire in the sky!

Yesterday morning I took a walk on the Gualala Bluff Trail. The Gualala River is nice and full from the recent rains. It is still "closed" to the Pacific Ocean by the big sandbar. But more rain is coming in next week so perhaps the river will breach then. We'll be watching!

It's a spectacular day today, temps in the 70's. If you celebrate Thanksgiving, as I do, then let me wish you Happy Thanksgiving. If you don't celebrate Thanksgiving, then I hope you will give thanks for the beauty of the Mendonoma Coast!

Roxanne Holmes recently photographed a beautiful sunset off Shell Beach, at The Sea Ranch.

And Perry Hoffman photographed the sweet pinks and yellows of a sunrise from  his Gualala home.

Thanks to Roxanne and Perry for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

Sunny and cool today with very little wind...and achingly beautiful.

A Mendonoma sunset is something to be savored. This is what John Wall saw from his Sea Ranch home last week. Isn't beautiful?

I asked John if those were Brown Pelicans resting on the island and he said yes! Brown Pelicans are now headed southward. They are being seen here in very large numbers.

Bonus photo from John! Dash, the dog, points out a vole or gopher. What a dog!

Thanks to John for allowing me to share his photos with you here.

Smoke from fires far to our north drifted in overnight...ugh. And it's quite warm, over 80 degrees at Rick's and my place in Anchor Bay. Cooler weather is predicted and even a chance of sprinkles on Friday. So, hopefully the smoke will be fleeting.

The clouds make for a dramatic sunset and the ship on the horizon adds to the interest. Shari Goforth-Eby photographed this beautiful sight.

Thanks to Shari for allowing me to share her photo with  you here.

Cloudy this morning, but the sun broke through. The temps are going to rise for the weekend. I took a walk with my sister, Linda Bostwick, on the Point Arena-Stornetta Lands this afternoon and the wildflowers are amazing!
