Random So Cal Summer pics:

Three owls together at the casa late one afternoon/eveing. Unfortunately very low light, but a record for the most we’ve ever seen at one time.








Ferdinand Magellan (named by my former USNavy navigator daughter!) coming to see me in the pool.






Quick trip up to Mt San Antonio (Baldy)



Looking north at the the infamous Cajon pass in the distance - from Baldy Notch




Day is done, gone the sun…

Beautiful summer evening under the stars at the Greek, with the Avett Brothers headlining. Awesome show btw.











Grandsons at play!

What a great looking boat. Ski Nautique?

From yesterday, face the wind:



Grass, humor me, is a little high because it has been so dry. The bank down to the Potomac faces due South and gets sun all day.

That is my story and I am....

More of a Tug NW style- The Skagit, named after the Skagit river I surmise.
It worked the waters of Ross lake for decades, I suppose it just got too long in the tooth and too thin of the metallurgy to keep maintaining.
It was up on Ross dam in 2008, got transported somehow to a flat-ish area a little below the dam and then cut to bits and hauled out. There is no road access to this area and had to be barged out.
Seems to me it would have been easier to drag it down to Diablo and floated to where there is road access-

2008-
