sunrise from home
September 1, 2013
We heard there were over 100 humpback whale sightings yesterday due to anchovies in the Bay, so we're keeping an eye on the water more than usual. It's been absolutely gorgeous here the past few days. Lots of sunshine,
finally; June gloom fog that last through August is long gone. September and October are the hottest months in Monterey with an average high temperature hovering around 70°F (21.1°C). The water has been extremely quiet, despite it being comfortably breezy. Based on my observations from past years, it should remain quiet until the autumnal equinox later this month when the waves kick up in a big, loud way. Hopefully, I'll be finishing up my physical therapy from my bicycle accident, and then I'll be able to enjoy the fall changes out on the trails. Until then...
ps 09/07/13 - Well, that was a load of hooey. The waves are very loud this morning, much earlier in the month than I expected. So much for my past observations.
pss 09/08/13 - A belted kingfisher came flying into view out of the fog this morning, trailing its distinctive rattle. Ha! The fog has returned in all its glory. I'm enjoying the variation.
