Canada geese a year-round inhabitants in Alameda.  Well, some are, anyway.  The population swells in the winter when the migratory birds are around mingling with the locals.  I don't blame the year-rounders from eschewing the seasonal migrations.  It must be such a hassle.

A family emergency has yanked me out of my old, familiar routine and into Oregon.  Everything is going well so far as the family emergency is concerned.

I got a chance to get out a bit on Sunday.  Pongo and I headed out to the coast.  We drove from Pacific City to Newport taking pictures along the way.  I took the pictures, Pongo acted as navigator.  He's not very good at that but his heart is in the right place.
