Turret spider burrows
These unique spiders, found only in California, build small towers out of soil, plant matter, and silk. Each turret houses one spider, and the structure serves to both protect the spider and to help it detect vibrations from prey. Turret spiders are nocturnal, so it's rare to actually see one.
Their closest relatives are tarantulas and trapdoor spiders, which together form the mygalomorphs, a relatively "primitive" lineage of spiders.

The Waiting is the Hardest Part
Ridiculously light, a pale green frost to barely-yellow with definite temporary suspended spritz. Opaque and tight in the nose, ever-so-slight greenery herbaceousness and wisps of apple and melon carrying the fruit. It does gather some rich varietal, smoky depth with considerable air, but this is definitely a delicate drop. In the mouth–at 60°–equally light and un-charasmatic, a watered-down…

Garbage Litter Removed From Castle Rock SP
Removed this nasty bit of litter from a struggling madrone in Castle Rock over the weekend. I don’t know why “access” only means further damaging the recovering nature with junk, nor why all these “access” nonprofits don’t use their $$$voice$$$ to influence the situation. Fug your trash sculptures, fug your geocaches!!! State Parks for the trees!!

The lowest though not least common denominator is water. It’s so low that a great deal of it is deep below the ground. Or at least it used to be. But now so much of it is going, going, and nearly gone. That’s why everyone wants it so bad.An occupying army of rapacious techno-yuppie dweebs with no aesthetic genes are invading across the Santa Cruz Mountains from Silicon Valley to pillage the…
