First Fish at Lake George

Here's the treasure. Rainbow Trout aught by Danny Chong in the early afternoon. I couldn't believe he nabbed this fish with a Kassmaster (blue & silver).
For all fishermen out there, we wish you were here.

Eastern Sierras

George Lake, Eastern Sierras. We've got some trout! Kastmasters lures do the job.

Father's Day Special

My wife Diana whipped up a wonderful mushroom/cheese omlette, fit for a king. Or should i say, "Kings?" We gorged on the dish, all too fast.

Another Location Quiz


Yes, this is an enclosed fireplace. It's big, as you can see.
Can't figure it out? Hey, it's near Manteca, in a rather large store.

PS: the last place (last week) was in Clayton. At Cup o' Jo's. That also where Canesa's Brooklyn Heros are created. Good stuff.

Okay, Where Is This?


I'll give you a hint. It's in Clayton California. Nice cozy place with some killer lunches.

At least try a guess....

Summer's Just Around the Corner


There's nothing as bright as a yellow spot of gold to announce the transition to summer. The orange garland around it's center, this one's ready for gracing the table....or maybe just left to enjoy the sun outside.

Spring Day at Sonoma


We enjoyed the great Spring day in Sonoma's city square. After dining at a superb Portuguese restaurant, LaSalette (Cozinha Nova Portugesa), we rolled out to enjoy the sites. I really should have taken a nap after that wonderful lunch, but I had to drive back to Napa Valley, amid some gorgeous landscapes in wine country.

Life is good....

Evening Wisteria

 
During an April evening our wisterias bloomed profusely, clusters weighing down its bows. I don't remember such vibrant colors on these branches. Bumble bees took their last feedings, before retiring for the next day's gorge.

Spring will be nice this year, even though the cold is again coming on.

March Daisies


How can you not like daisies this time of year? This year March did come in as a lion and left like a lamb--in mellow sunshine.

Got tomatoes from Navlet's, so here's hoping for a bomber crop this summer.

Spring's a Comin'


On beautiful early March day I weeded our garden. When I came upon this flower, the "weed" begged not to be pulled. It so enhanced our lush hill in the back I felt the least I could do would be to capture it's essence....before dumping it into my green barrel.
