Last Day

I managed to fight my way awake this morning, ate my Albertson's brand bran flakes, suited up and headed west to the big water. It wasn't as chilly as I thought, but it was certainly cool. The Weather Underground stations on Mt. Helix and Ocean Beach both agree it was around 45 degrees this morning.

My turn-around point is out on the jetty. Back in the day you could walk all the way out, but not no more. When the water is down I've seen people fishing out there. I'm shooting through the gap in the locked gate.

The flash was turned off so I wasn't sure when the camera timer took the pic...

I hope when the Indian gaming places get enough money in the bank they will do the responsible thing and shut down the casinos. Yeh, that's gonna happen!

I've always liked this piece of art. It's been there about 30 years, but it's looking pretty sad.

Caught up on all of your Bicycle Musings! Great pics. Especially like the ones of the frost. Stockton had a few days of frost while we were there. I should have taken pics. It looked like snow!
