Through the Garden Gate

Often quite warm, June is full of gardening events and blooming salvias. Depending on what kind of plants you grow, water down your garden and mulch it heavily with good organic compost. Don’t forget to leave soft, unmulched soil for the bees and other critters that need places to nest. I notice that the mourning doves love dust baths…they like loose, dry dusty soil in which to sunbathe. The dust is a natural mite repellent. Who needs chemicals when you have dirt!

Be good to bees

The weather is warm, flowers are blooming and the buzz around the county is coming from bees that have been collecting nectar and pollen all spring to make honey.

People ask me all the time about how to go fishing or crabbing in Bodega Bay when you don’t own a boat. Today, I am going to give you a brief break down on the various sportfishing boat options. The ones I am going to mention are certainly not the only ones but the ones that are running full time and have good solid reputations that I can vouch for.
