old guy. photographer & gardener. I post my edited artistic impressions of photos I took, mostly from the natural world & mainly flowers. I never use AI for my images, but thanks if you think I do. Enjoy. I am JBC & I have a daughter I call the Navigator.

Mt Lassen is the northern end of the Sierras. we’ll see if they get snow. it’s raining here now. not heavy & more than a drizzle.

good morning, Nachi. you pic didn't load properly. there just a blue band of sky across the top.

JBC @johnbcaddell.bsky.social · 13h

it's not a street, it's the name of the premier surfing spot in Santa Cruz, CA.

it was 1st going to start at 9, then it changed to 10, now at 11, but the highest all day is 75% chance

yes I am. Redding, CA in the north part, maybe 2-3 hours drive to Oregon border. it's not cold enough around here right now to get snow, & I don't see it forecast for places like Mt Lassen or Shasta, or Yosemite, or in the higher little towns in the Trinity Mts. maybe the tops of high peaks.
