to a stop at Hearst Castle on our September 2013 road trip up along the California coast.

The "castle" is a silly place one really only needs to see once, IMHO. This is the "Roman Pool", one of the visually most appealing and stylistically least offensive 😜 parts of the "castle".

Yesterday, I went to a protest at beach on the against shark nets. As an ocean swimmer, I am appalled by the destruction of endangered wildlife, including turtles and dolphins and even baby whales who get caught unintentionally by these nets.

The politicians KNOW that the nets are not effective in preventing shark attacks, and KNOW of the 'by-catch' harm they do... And yet... And yet they do not have the guts to back the removal of these nets. Why? Short-term political gain, of course, as in so many other areas; they rather be in the wrong than risk a roasting by a hostile press.

There are jellyfish that I swim with every day that have more backbone.

@Bigsurkate "The northern closure of Highway 1 on the Big Sur coast moved four miles south today, from the Big Creek Vista Point in Monterey County at Post Mile 27.3 to Lucia at PM 23.2.

With this move of the northern closure, a roughly two-mile stretch of Hwy. 1 remains closed to through traffic."

The southern point of closure is just before the closed Limekiln State Park.

Regarding the Hunter bus crash tragedy.

It turns out that the driver was one of two drivers that drove primary age kids on a school camp , going from the Central Coast to Bathurst on Thursday and coming back on Friday.

Teachers rasied concerns about his driving with the company after that trip.

I had a child on that school trip.

The next day was the night of the crash in the Hunter and 10 dead.

Before they went, both myself and my wife were nervous of a bus crash happening. We had not mentioned this to each other until after the fact or have any logical explanation of why we would be thinking this way.

Stratus clouds are still hanging on down the while it's much clearer west of the North Bay. You can see the differences on the fire cams with the view in and just slightly south of there as Half Moon Bay is still covered in clouds.

All of this rain is a part of a low pressure system, that rotates around its center in a counter-clockwise fashion. You can see it on satellite just off the coastline
