The Beach on an early winter's day...

2. They are the posts for volleyball nets during the summer, my dear Chin music!

The nets come down in the winter. Nobody wants to play when it's cold.

4. It does look like a cold day there.

Kind of abandoned, the exact opposite of a bustling summer day. I like your wide narrow crop.

6. This is the time of year that I love going to the beach, my dear Diamond_Dog!

There's no crowds, no tournaments, no hustle and bustle. The tourists are mostly gone.

I LOVE IT.

I'm so glad you like my photo and the crop.

5. Winter? South California?

Isn't that an oxymoron? Does California even have a winter?

Seriously tho, that's a nice picture. It does look lonely.

7. Yes, we do have winter here, dear Andy!

As you know.

Glad you like my photo!

And it definitely looks lonely, which is exactly the way I like it.

8. All the leaves are brown

And the sky is gray
I've been for a walk
On a winter's day
I'd be safe and warm
If I was in L.A.
California dreamin'
On such a winter's day

I'll look at your photo when I fire up the snow blower
in a couple of months.

9. Awww, what a sweet response, my dear liberaltrucker!

I've heard those lyrics before, and they sure are appropriate.
