Things were nice and peaceful and quiet last night and I found out why when I got up this morning.
Seems it snowed a couple inches of snow last night.
This is what it looked like looking out my van’s side doors this morning out towards the Pacific Ocean.
After getting up and having a cup of coffee, I ventured out to have a look.
Making bread sticks
It was rather cold out, so I went back in and started another cup of coffee and cooked up some yeast bread sticks I’d been maturing for the last couple days. Of course I had the propane heater going too.
I’ve found that this is the easiest way to make up some yeast type bread without a big hassle.
I ate most of the bread sticks with my coffee then put things away for travel.
Headed on over to the library
It was snowing lightly with a bit of slush as I drove through the Humbug Mountain Park area which looked like this as I headed for Port Orford.
I was headed to the library to check the internet for email and what the weather was supposed to do.
Looks like a lot more of the same type of weather coming up
The weather guys are predicting more rain and wind for the next couple days and then some more showers. I plan to stay at least a few more days to see how things pan out, or not.
We are getting a bit of sun right now, so I will post this blog and head down to the harbor for a nap and to check things out. I might also explore some of the streets in town that I haven’t checked out yet.
Hi Patsy, A little snow I can handle. The locals tell me they haven’t had eight inches of snow around here for over twenty years. Might as well get it over with as it’s still winter. Hopefully the kind of snow where you guys live will be gone by the time you get home.

Snow, yeuch! We aren’t starting to head home until the 21st of march. Hopefully by then we won’t see too much of the white stuff or cccold temps. Safe travels, have fun!

Header Pictures
There are over a hundred pictures that are served up randomly every time you visit or change pages. They are of earlier pictures of interest and also some just to remind me of things.
A Sony AX33 4K, a video camera that takes stills too. What am I doing with that? I take pictures from my Kayak a lot. I found I was missing interesting shots, because my pic was being processed in my camera, before it would let me take another pic. Since I like to take what I call action stills, I bought this camera to take videos, that I could make stills out of, but, as a bonus, this camera also came with buttons to just take stills and that's what I mostly do, unless something is real interesting or too far away for my still zooms. My digilat zoom setting for video goes to two hundred x, and sometimes I need that, but usually, I only use the 10x lens zoom. Because this camera is HD and 4K, the quality has to be real good and it has a lot of stabilizers on it which really helps out a lot for taking pics on the water.
The other thing it has that is a must is a view finder and I had to buy Sony's top of the line cam to get it. This is a must for taking pics on the water, as you must hold the camera as still as posible and putting that eye piece to the eye forms a tripod with your arms that helps a lot. The eye piece is also a must as it works way better than a LED screen to see what you are taking a picture of in the daylight as the LED screens wash out easily in sunlight.
I also have another video camera, a Canon VIXIA G30. I use them both to mostly take stills. The Sony takes higher resolution stills than the G30. That was a bit of a disappointment as I bought the G30 to replace an older camera I dunked in the river, but then had to buy the Sony to get higher still picture resolution that the G30 was lacking.
