While we need the rain, it is hard to complain about weather like this, when much of the nation is snow-bound.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Also, an update on the Alm’s Ridge Rd.: “For the past 4 days these 2 guys (Jim and Tom) have been working on the lower part of the Alms Ridge road.  Really nice guys and they have done a great job.  Although, they did say that they needed 2 weeks, and some culverts to do the job right.  The FS gave them 4 days- I guess It took them one day to get here…they said they were putting in an extra day (at their own expense) so they could do the job in a good way. ” Hopefully, Alm’s Ridge can get approval for the needed culverts, to keep this from happening.

I wanted to add this update because often times, we only hear when the USFS messes up, not when they are responsive and working with us to mitigate the problems. Kudos to Bradford and his team!!

  • Yup, good day! Sunny and glassy. I am a speck in that picture doin' my skiff fishing out of Mill Creek, and if you look carefully at the wave at the north end of the beach, all the South Coast crew was surfing there...the Handys, Matt, Chappy, John McKinstry, Duncan, Cauren, Adam, Theron, and more...I would have liked to get some waves too, but the bills had to be paid, so commercial fishing was the priority for the day... not a bad "day at the office"! But hey...is this Winter???
