Because it is Sunday in East Asia and Australia, here have my Silent Sunday offering. A photo taken by Jenifer Hanen, aka msjen.com, in the last week of September 2026 in June Lake, California.  What is the photo of you ask? A side of a mountain draped in autumnal colors of dry yellow grass, dark green pine trees, and golden yellow quaking aspen trees. The sky is blue, the grey granite outcrops are rocky, and the scene is everything delightful. Thank you for reading the alt text this far. May you be richly blessed.

One sure way to tell when it is going to be an El Nino year without any weather human or media telling you so, it is when it is not yet October and the Eastern Pacific region is on tropical named storm/hurricane R (Rachel) and the Atlantic basin is only on G (Gonzalo).

A beautiful, serene dark blue high mountain lake surrounded with pine trees now has the quivering joy of the beginning of Dog-Stick-Lake-Swim season! Yes, Ellie the Dog is on her annual spring tour of Eastern Sierras high mountain lakes as their roads are cleared, gates open, here comes Ellie to get that stick. Fishmas is for fisherfolk, this is Stickmas at Rock Creek Lake up at 9,000 ft. There was still snow on the north facing lake side. So exciting!

It depends on what section of the US-395. From Alturas north to the Canadian border is better that prescription sleep aids. The section of the US-395 from Olancha to Bridgeport is too glorious to sleep to. Except that trucker that I reported to the CHP for swerving yesterday at Crowley Lake.

A snowy start to the Eastern Sierra Nevadas fishing season! View from the RV's back window this morning after it snowed last night. In the foreground is a wood picnic table with a dusting of snow on it, in the middle ground is tufts of short grass with clumps of wind blown snow on them, and in the background are snow covered Glass Mountains. The just after dawn sky is golden with grey clouds. 
Photo taken on April 26, 2026 by Jenifer Hanen, aka msjen.com,  at Brown's Owens River campground in Mono County, California.  Happy Fishmas! 
p.s. A wolf with a tracking collar was nearby last night. Awesome!
