Major storms! Big Sur Valley reported 2 inches this morning. I am in SoCal with my dying mother, but the news reports are pretty amazing about the snow in the Rockies, the Sierras, and the rain every where – my daughter made it across the Rockies last night, just in front of the snow storm, and will hopefully be here this afternoon in time to say good-bye to her grandmother.

Next break in the weather is Sunday, looks like. Be safe, all.

  • You always read like wilderness pioneers. Bravo the mother and daughter, the grandmother you honor now for instilling courage. My heart's with you all though we've never met.

  • All my best wishes to you and your family, Kate. May you feel the strength and joy of loving hearts joined together as you assist your mom in her transition.

    Peace be with you all!

  • It feels like a storm, doesn't it? My best thoughts to you and your family as you pass through this transition. May your mom pass peacefully and without pain.
