  • Yep, it's pouring here. I'm the designated "come get us" transport in the Canyon, if another redwood tree decides to fall on Palo Colorado Rd again. Merry Christmas to one & all! Stay safe.

  • Bette let me know if you need a ride out. Merry Christmas to all, too. May the towering redwoods stay upright and strong of root.

  • This is a guess... coming south where there's a left turn lane for CV Road, the cliffs on the right jut out bit and are high; once you turn onto CV it's flatland. Explains a very quiet road to the village, not much traffic.
