Today’s beavertail pictures were taken yesterday. It was desperately hot today, giving us a taste of things to come.
A bee on my knee
I rescued a bee that was crawling on my knee, did some writing and programming, and had an early start.

I worked on some different stuff today, and went out to observe the aftermath of the storm. It looks as though our pet ocotillo is about to hatch flowers.

I did work, found it hard to complete work, then went for a hike. After that attitude readjustment, I completed work.
Seaweed-strewn
16 February 2009: The storm had thrown up swathes of seaweed. That stuff used to freak me out when I was a kid…the texture is just plain weird. Now, it’s just part of the sea-thing.
Cotton tails
As I rode by one day I noticed that there were fluffy seed-bearing things beside the driveway. So I went back to take a look and some pictures. Here they are!
Spiky things
These spiky things grow everywhere. I have no idea what they are; they look like dead red-hot pokers. However, their leaves are succulent, almost furry.
