A "frigid" 45 degrees here in Seal Beach when I got up at 4:45am. Venus bright as a diamond over the beach and the North Star pointing dead North (checked against my Brunton). Took four nice Barred Surf Perch out behind the break on Sunset Beach. While I was cleaning them, I watched our friendly local Cooper's hawk take a mourning dove out of the neighbor's back yard (noticed my cat Hairy was on the roof watching the same with envy, I'm sure). Life goes on; what a pretty thing!
In spite of everything we can all pray for the peace and mercy that this season stands for; me especially since my younger son is spending Christmas at Parris Island. !Y Feliz Navidad y Prospero A~no Nuevo a nuestros miembros hispanoparlantes!
