Not too long ago I shared some of my previously unseen images from two abandoned luxury homes on the bluff above Manchester Beach in Mendocino County. I had intended to finish off the series sooner, but anyway, here is the final group of photos, mostly focusing on the more southern of the two structures. I’m not sure how long these […]
Today I’m looking back at a few of the photos I shot with my Fujifilm camera last April during a quick visit to Lake Mendocino. I was already familiar with the north end of the lake, so I went exploring and found the Shakota Trail, near The Forks, on the southwest shore. There is a popular boat ramp here, but […]

It is the second largest natural freshwater lake […]

I spent some time this morning at New York Creek on Folsom Lake, just listening to the wind and remembering all the times I’ve visited this spot with the Big Guy. The last time was in October 2024. We haven’t had much time for trips to the lake this year, traveling back and forth to Texas with the passing of […]
