Happy New Year everyone! Each year we wish that this brand new year brings health, happiness and prosperity. I’m wishing for good health. Health brings happiness and a prosperous attitude. Above all, let’s keep smiling through this year! Smiles are catching and have a healing quality.
We did a lot of smiling during our brief stay at Bodega Bay. On day two, we went to the beach. Again we had cloud cover with a hint of sunshine. Almost sounds like an ice cream sunday, doesn’t it. Yum!
Here are pictures from our beach visit. Here a seagull found its best photographic side.
Learning how to fish.
The beach.
Beach views from the top of the hill.
A colorful kite shop in town. I resisted buying the candy.
This was a great way to end 2022. What will 2023 bring us? I gave up predicting years ago. I also gave up making resolutions. I just try to be the best me that I can be.
Right now it’s still raining in the Sacramento area, and that is good even though some areas are flooding. Our lakes are filling up and we will probably get a good snow pack in the mountains that will give us water during the summer.
Take care everyone, and I wish you the best this year.

Happy New Year! 😀 🙂

Happy new year to you too, Anne. Love your wintry beach photos. It is the perfect time of year to spend by the sea. Hooray for the rain! That is good news. Our weather is drying out here. It had to happen sooner or later.

Thank you Tracy! A similar deluge happened when we had another drought. If it were a perfect world, it would rain at night and the sun would shine during the day. But then the world isn’t perfect! Happy New Year!

Thanks Amy! However, it’s too much at once and for a long duration. Areas are flooding. As they say “When it rains, it pours!”
