Quote, "Four weeks of this change, with broken spaces of sunlight and intense blue aerial islands, and then a storm set in.All day the summit pines and redwoods rocked in the blast.

At times the onset of the rain seemed to be held back by the fury of the gale, or was visibly seen in sharp waves on the hillside.Unknown and concealed watercourses suddenly overflowed the trails, pools became lakes and brooks rivers.Hidden from the storm, the sylvan silence of sheltered valleys was broken by the impetuous rush of waters; even the tiny streamlet that traversed Flip's retreat in the Gin and Ginger Woods became a cascade."
