Just in time to hopefully help Northern California start to pull out of it's dry spell a decent multiday rain storm swept through the parched landscape, all the way from the Sierras to the Sacramento Valley. Roofs developed leaks, trees fell down, and I actually took two rest days in one week! Thanks to this latest round of precipitation I'm looking forward to getting to the mountains for some more snowshoeing and snowboarding. Granted, this most recent storm doesn't magically make the drought disappear, and it was unusually warm (temps in the mid 60s were not uncommon during the few days of the storm), but it helps.

     My small blog has reached 1000 views! It's taken a while and I am a little surprised that people have had that much interest in my meandering diatribes and random babblings. Actually, when I saw the counter had broken the four figure mark, I thought there was some mistake. I suppose it just goes to show that persistence and consistency can pay off.  Thank you so much to everyone who keeps tuning in to check out my asinine inanities! 

     Another entertainment recommendation for your consideration: Horns. This motion picture stars Daniel Radcliffe as the lead and I was pleasantly surprised. Let me say I didn't have high expectations of the movie going into it, so that may be why I ended up liking it so much. It's a murder mystery with a supernatural twist. It's set in Washington state, and Radcliffe shines as the protagonist. Be warned though, this movie is not for the sensitive. I found myself really wrapped up in the whodunnit aspect of the tale. Really worth a watch.

     Now for something probably not worth anyone's time at all: another selfie! This particular, very unflattering selfie was taken in a moment when I was bored and thought, 'what the heck, just go outside with the camera and see what you get'.
