Morning mist in Redding CA

Sun seen through mist in Redding CA
Morning mist rising up from the pool signals the approaching Autumnal end of our swim season, which in turn sets my mind’s eye soaring up into the dreamy sky overhead and back. Music excerpt “Mystical Fantasies” by Craig Padilla.

The lady of the mountain

Just another spectacular Autumn day in Northern California. The relatively high lake level seems extra fortuitous for this time of year, perhaps heralding another bountiful water year, climate permitting. The lady of the mountain wearing a skimpy, powdery negligee in anticipation of her dense white winter cloak to come. Meanwhile, these balmy days grow shorter. Make the most of them.
