Downtown LA is hidden by fog, but the snowcapped local mountains rise above it. Note that my New Year's Resolution is to take fewer smartphone photos. I have processed way too many pics taken during runs since the pandemic began (1,698...1,317 in 2021 alone)!
JANUARY - The weather is finally starting to warm up...I didn't have to wear long sleeves, pants, or compression sleeves this morning
I think two of the birds are peacocks, one probably is the father of the other
Wow...6 v̶e̶l̶o̶c̶i̶r̶a̶p̶t̶o̶r̶s̶ peafowl have taken over this property
I wonder how long this trail will remain blocked
Looks like it damaged another tree
assume this tree was a victim of the recent storm...3 days of nearly constant rain (over 4 inches in the LA Basin)
You shall not pass
This is one of the few dirt paths I enjoy running upon after a storm...it never gets affected by the rain, not even muddy. Note that it is still cold enough that this is the second time I have worn my cold weather Buff in a configuration that covers my ears and my mouth and nose...though the latter is making my glasses fog up.
NEW YEARS EVE - The latest storm has finally moved on, but yesterday's crazy rain was not why I deferred my scheduled 6 miler until today...I had a dentist appointment (yay, no cavities!)
The weather app says it is supposedly in the mid-to-high 40s. Fake news?
Didn't make it! Rain started falling roughly 2 miles from home. #GotWet
I hope I will complete my run ahead of the coming storm... #StillDry #RunningDuringPandemic #TripleVaxxed #GotBoost #HereComesTheRainAgain #WinterIsHere

Another proposed structure on an undeveloped lot I have frequently run by over the years...
Wet. Windy. Cold. Slow. Felt like I ran in a rain cloud as I headed down Granvia Altimira. #RunningDuringPandemic #TripleVaxxed #GotBoost #WinterIsHere #Tesla #Model3
...and some fences need significantly larger repairs than ours did! We should consider ourselves very fortunate!
