  1. The salt mounds were lower than usual at the salt ponds and one of them looks like a vehicle drove over it (I assume that's the thing that happens!).

  2. definitely the brown/golden grass time of year in California! These are all yesterday.

  3. We were already a couple of hours late, so didn't pass Vandenburg in time and had to sit for 45 minutes until the SpaceX launch 🚀 didn't see it, but the train shook!

  4. I never know why they sometimes route through Niles instead of the regular route, but this is the first time I've gone through during the daytime in a while – no idea what's going on but now we've been sitting next to a field south of Fremont for 20 minutes.

  5. typical start to the trip: there's a auto on the tracks ahead of us so we can't leave.

  6. For years – decades – I've taken a picture of this spindly Poinsettia tree at the San Luis Obispo Amtrak station every time I pass through. I don't know why I like it so much. Usually has at least one bloom all year round.

    Today I saw these trees with the bright orange blooms on them, I've never seen them bloom before. Does anyone know what these are?

  7. Back on the train with espresso and my ballot. The only thing good about my ballot is the sticker. Also: the salt ponds look good today.

  8. Also, Amtrak clearly knows I'm going to ride the new Metro D line extension when I get there, there are signs everywhere!

  9. in the early 80s, my friend and I were driving on Highway 5 in the summer and there were all kinds of bugs hitting the window and we ran out of windshield wiper fluid so I leaned out of the sunroof and poured water like this; I believe this means I'm qualified to be a train engineer.

  10. Northbound Coast Starlight taken from the southbound Coast Starlight at San Luis Obispo station.
