This sounded very melodious until the Steller’s Jays arrived (3) and started squawking! My Bird of the Day is just visiting, a migrant to this cloud forest on a hill in San Francisco.

It’s been like this for a week here in San Francisco. Our indoor air has a PM2.5 of 6, which is low but is usually zero due to our filtered electric heat pump system & new replacement windows. It’s bad outside. Someone’s nearby outside monitor’s at 68, but Purple Air thinks it’s much worse. So do I.

Here is the recipe as VP Kamala Harris posted it on her IG back in 2020.

Kamala's Cornbread Dressing - my contribution for tomorrow's Thanksgiving dinner at our cousin's house. That's why I needed the fresh herbs. See reply for recipe!

Wish she could have been our President 😭

Unfortunately, in CA, it’s not just Republicans. The #1 recipient of oil & gas money in CA legislature this past quarter was Jasmeet Bains, whom the CA Dem establishment has endorsed to flip CA-22 (@Villegas4Congress.bsky.social is better!) See lists at bottom:

Dolores Huerta lifts up a progressive challenger in CA-22! We need to flip this seat from red to blue, and not with a corporate Dem who takes oil & gas money. Randy Villegas @villegas4congress.bsky.social is the primary challenger who will represent his majority-Latino district with integrity.

Just got back to California last night, and I’m already missing the aloha.

I love San Francisco.

Big storm. Text alert says, “Take your time and look after one another.”

Sunday mid-day walk in San Francisco. A few wisps of fog from the overnight blanket remain around Sutro Tower on Twin Peaks. Lots of songbirds
