THE FISHING REPORT: Layers

I love it when a plan comes together. Whether it is fishing or traveling or really anything in life, there is something very satisfying when all the planning leads to the premeditated ending. But often there is more to the well-planned event. Call it layers in the universe or karma; it is pretty cool when you have a chance to see some of the manifestations. So, before I lose you all in my ethereal ranting’s, let me provide you a fishing report and then a few of the layers that went with it.

Wine and food in Sonoma County A season of affairs to remember

WHEEL OF LIGHT: November 2012

Last month we discussed the transit of Saturn into Scorpio. This month, a harmonious connection between Saturn and Neptune highlights the beginning of that transit. There are no planets whose energy is more dissimilar than Saturn and Neptune. Saturn deals with concrete, goal-oriented activity that is designed to achieve status and control. Saturn prioritizes personal responsibility as a way of feeling empowered and productive. Although it is more active than contemplative, it prefers doing things in cautious, deliberate, methodical ways. However conservative and traditional it may be, Saturn is a major player on the physical plane.

THE FISHING REPORT: October Fish Fest

October has to be the best month of the year. The low angle of the sun makes for comfortable radiant warmth and beautiful sunrises and sets. In addition, the fish and wildlife seem to sense that winter is coming and they tend to be very active, feeding at these polar times of the day.

Screenings: The Day I Saw Your Heart

Well, not your heart exactly. You see, “The Day I Saw Your Heart” is the title of a complicated family dramedy that screens next Thursday as part of the Sonoma County Jewish Film Festival. Presented by the Jewish Community Center of Sonoma County, the Film Fest spent a decade at the Rialto’s old home on Summerfield Road in Santa Rosa, and set up temporarily at the 6th Street playhouse, but since Ky Boyd’s Rialto Cinemas has finally moved to Sebastopol, the Jewish Film Festival once again has a permanent home.

Winetasting at Healdsburg Crush!

Crushing it once again for the B&G Clubs

In winemaking, “crush” is not only an act essential to the art and industry of viticulture, but a term for the seasonal turn from growing to winemaking, of harvesting the grapes and releasing their juice and pulp so fermentation can begin. In Healdsburg, it's a seasonal winetasting celebration, held this year on Oct. 11.
