Pacinian sensors are
either the sensors in your fingers that when you are holding on to your handle
bars, and can’t look down, tell your brain that the road is rough. Or maybe Pacinian
sensors are what made the year old furnace in my home fail?
The reports from home say, the furnace that had issues running has been replaced by the contractor that
put it in. The new one makes a whirring noise but the house is warm. 
Highway 84 gets curvy just
west of Woodside, and on one of the first hard leans to the left I can tell
right away that the floor board is dragging on the smooth road. A lean not so hard
to the right and the city is behind me.
Don't Trip On The Fence Trespassing Here
Redwood forests give way
to the open of the pacific coast. The tide is high, waves crashing against
the rocks , and the ocean looks like it always has, but biologists warn that the krill count is way down, and the
level of oxygen is declining also…But no one seems to pay them any mind.
Out at Pigeon Point the
light is still standing, but remains in disrepair.
Pigeon Point Light
At the end of the path I
watch the sea for a bit, but spot no, seals or whales. Off on convict rock Cormorant
dries its wings and Red Wing Blackbirds compete with Starlings all around the light.
Pigeon Point Light & Keepers Cabin
Plans are afoot to stabilize
and restore the light, but California has other priorities, so the old light
rusts away. With climate change taking its toll on the sea I am betting on the
light outlasting the ocean….Back over the coast range on the city side, the moon rises, and the street light makes everything glow yellow...
