It’s been cold, gray and rainy here all day. TY Peggy!

Are you anywhere near the Malibu fires that are in the news? I hope not!

It was a beautiful day here, with the sun out and a tiny breeze. I'm sorry your day has been so dismal!

We're nowhere near the Malibu fires. They are probably at least 30 miles to the north of us. No danger here. They've had more than their share of disasters.

We did have a beautiful sunset, which might have happened because of the fire, but I'm not sure.

It's a nice atmosphere, warm, sunny, by the sea. It's freezing and windy here with some sun.

We used to get close to freezing temps here, but that was more than 40 years ago! We complain if the temps fall into the 50's!

I know, I have several relatives who live south of you, in San Diego, and they do the same thing. And they all came from New England!

Once they got to San Diego, they never left.

I was surprised at the variety of colors that showed up when I uploaded the photo! And also I was pleased!
