When I opened the curtain at 5:45 there was already a blue-gray glow in the western sky. We’re a third of the way to the solstice. I wont wake up in the dark anymore till August. Two rock doves clean up spilled seeds under the bird feeder, a hummingbird visits the hummingbird sage, a bee sips at the holly-leaf cherry flowers. Now the sun paints the east face of Caballo Peak, and now to...

The trip was punctuated by a pee and gorp stop on an unvegetated rock islet. We glided through several liquid slits between islands, challenging to find in the fog and thrilling to negotiate. After carrying the kayaks safely onshore, we pitched tents, found appropriate toilet locations, and built a bench and footrest with t...

Sustainability in the abstract takes up much of my time, but I've done little to reduce my personal footprint. This has come home to me while reading a book about logging in British Columbia called The Golden Spruce. I paddled past ...

I arrived at the Marina early and walked to the point to gaze at birds, clouds and the distant dunes. Rounding the lion rock, I came across two white egrets. I was transfixed by their yellow eyes and graceful head plumes but they werent interested in my company. They slowly flapped their huge wings, lifted their legs and flew across the flat water.
