Coyote on the trail camera under my back deck. I’ve never heard or seen any in the years I’ve been there. Just another reason not to let your cats roam outside and your dogs off leash while hiking. 🐺

Downtown or airport area, seafood a plus, nice-casual or “ladies who lunch” vibe would be nice.

I blessed a car once and the (now former) director of the Barth Center at PTS said it was “the terrifying final result of sacramentality.”
