Don't go near the water

so there you have it

winter

I hope you enjoyed it

Looks like it will be a "normal winter"

In terms of rainfall for SoCal

A fair amount of damage

mudslides below the hillsides

flooding

high tides and high surf



(table 3 would like their water glasses refilled when you get a minute)

Still probably the most dangerous thing in the water

are the pollutants

microbial, toxins,

street oil, dog poop,

and any things else that fits in the storm drain ...

plus the nuclear waste

don't tell me the something with a half life of thousands of years

is going to magically disappear

in the Pacific

like a lost fishing boat in a storm

But in a few days it will be Spring

and as they say

hope Springs Eternal....

And as I sit

watching the sunrise

with the cat on my lap

(in addition to personal protection services my duties include providing heat on cold or damp mornings)

I am looking forward

to sunshine

to warm water

and surf
