And it don't smell like napalm.

I love the smell of cannabis in the morning. It smells like victory.

Sighting of the first woolly worm of the year. Winter is definitely on it's way.

The full blue super moon. This pix was taken 8/30/23 at 11:30 pm. It is not so much the subject of the pix I like, it is the lighting, shadows and sky. The next one will not be here again until January 2037.

Nice jars. I like to clean, blanch, cut fresh corn off the cob, then freeze flat in ziplocs to enjoy during the holidays.

No wonder I used to like to suck on the ears after eating sweet corn. Sweet Corn Festival this month, a 50/50 drawing the winner won >$15K. Looks like the farmers had a good year here this summer, enough rain.

That's what I've been eating since the 60's when a Sicilian family moved to town. My gold standard for pizza - that crust and a mellow but tasty sauce - made from tomato puree and seasonings.

I forgot the aerated fecal matter blowing in. Just as the wind blows in sand from the beach and salt from evaporation, so does the poostuff get carried in from evaporation.
I've dealt with wildfire smoke. AFM is much nastier when you wake up and the air smells like sewage.

I used a UV light to sterilize the water in my old reef aquarium. Be aware the bulbs only keep the proper spectrum for about a year. Even though the bulb is working doesn't mean it's working right.

I'll vote for UVC lights changeofpace2014 ! The problem is where to put them.
My Rio TJ reference was the Tijuana River. Tijuana is what Mexico flushes. The Tijuana River is what Tijuana flushes. The Pacific Ocean is what flushes the Tijuana River.
The final flush comes from a previously US funded, broken water treatment plant in TJ that cannot be fixed because the funding was stolen by politicians who stole the money to hire qualified people to run and repair the system that overflows into the river on a regular basis that further flushes the raw sewage and it's aggregate down the broken pipe a few hundred meters off the coast instead of 2km.
The problem is bad enough that all our local governments have gotten D.C. involved in the ever-increasing amount of sewage being pumped through that pipe.
We just had our first tropical storm in 80 years. I'm sure there is issue on this side of the border. But... see... I live in what is considered the least desirable beach community on the west coast, if not the US. It is because of the previously mentioned pipe. We have had a constant, official beach closure for coming on two years. Further north is often closed.
Anyway. I'm dabbed. Don't drink the water. Montezuma's red-headed stepchild is in el norte.

people on well use u.v lights to sterilize there water but it has to be filtered and cleaned before the u.v is really effective. I have thought about adding a u.v light to our city water just for concerns...

All my community fat farms (fast food joints) are closed! Couldn't figure it out.
Turns out we have a boil water warning in effect because E. Coli has gotten into our system. Rio TJ must have finally exploded instead of merely gushing raw sewage. One little tropical storm has really mucked things up. People might have to cook for their kids! I'll bet the frozen food aisle at the grocery store is running empty.
