Christmas Tree

Sometime around 9:00 this morning, most of Ferndale lost power. Winds were up to category 1 hurricane levels (98 mph recorded in Eureka) so trees and even buildings were crashing down everywhere. The fire department was jumping all day, starting …

I took this picture on the 28th. I’ve wanted to take a picture here with a nice sunset for a long time. I saw this sunset developing and John and I went out, just to get out of the house …

Loleta under water

Here’s the view of Loleta from Tompkins Hill Road close to the peak of the flooding. Unbelievably it got worse than this, but I couldn’t get out of Ferndale to get the picture. Mom and Grandma, this is the road …

Rain, Rain, Go Away!

Knowlesville Posted on December 28, 2005 by MattMay 22, 2019
Flooding

I am really starting to hate the last two weeks of December, as it seems like the flooding just keeps getting worse every year. Our herb garden, our paths, everything that we worked so hard on this summer are now …

The Wall

Knowlesville Posted on December 20, 2005 by MattMay 22, 2019
Flooding

At our house the effect of all the rain was also visible. Fortunately, the wall we built earlier this year keeps the water out. Just when it comes within an inch of the top of the bricks it crests the …

The Eel River went from 2′ to 18′ in less than 24 hours today. It was projected to hit flood stage which is 21, but it didn’t make it. More rain is expected all week.

Lighted Tractor Parade

Miracles happen. All day today the rain has been pouring down sideways. I really didn’t think that I would be able to photograph the lighted tractor parade at all which I was worried about because I had told the editor …

Beautiful Morning on Main Street

Knowlesville Posted on December 14, 2005 by MattMay 22, 2019
Main Street Sunrise

Since Lori got a new job in Eureka, she’s been getting up early, and so on occasion I join her and then just go to the office early. This morning when I got to work there was a beautiful sunrise …

Yesterday, Lori had off from work so we thought we would finally get our Christmas tree. We went to the lot in Ferndale but nobody was there. So we went to one cut your own lot in Loleta where we …

Mom and Grandma left on the 6th, and then Lori came down with a cold. On the 8th, I came down with the same symptoms as Mom and Grandma, making me realize it wasn’t food poisoning after all, but a …

This month is getting another late start for way too many reasons. Mom and Grandma stayed with us for the week after Thanksgiving, so they could enjoy the start of the Ferndale Christmas festivities. We were going to go to …
