Jon and Susan Sandoval heard a noise on their deck in Gualala about 8:30 pm. They found this female, adult Mountain Lion staring back at them.

Doesn't she look healthy and strong? It's a mystery why she was on the Sandoval's deck because they do not have house pets or animals such as chickens to attract her. Amazing! Maybe she was following the scent of a Deer, her favorite prey.

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

Lots of cooling, moist fog on the immediate coast today, keeping temperatures in the 60's - nice!

It seemed like everyone was finding this delicious, edible mushroom, The Prince, Agaricus augustus. Jon Handel and Ling-yen Jones found a BIG one!

And Adrian Fehr and Marian Sandoval found a large cache of The Prince.

These mushrooms smell of almond, and they are considered dry weather mushrooms. They usually fruit in spring or summer. But we had a nice dry spell with warm temps between big storms. With the opening of the storm door recently, I don't think we'll be seeing these mushrooms for quite a while.

Thanks to Ling-yen and Susan Sandoval for allowing me to share their photos with you here.

Saturday night's storm brought 3 inches of rain, and Monday's storm brought 1.25 inches. Another storm comes in tomorrow morning. Bring it, Mother Nature!

oh, we are having a beautiful day on the Mendonoma Coast, sunny and cool. Looks like the holiday weekend will be smooth sailing, weather-wise.

Susan Sandoval noticed the surf line at Jenner had formed a heart.

Did you know a Gray Whale's spout is heart-shaped? Carol Bogovich photographed one.

Lastly, heart-shaped rocks, beautifully painted by Jann Littleton.
