A Different Look At More Mesa … As you all know, we have been experiencing very atypical weather across the South Coast since late spring.  Strong winds, never ending fog, and drizzle are rarely such large components of our weather.  And, of late, heavy rain, with accompanying thunder and lighting have been added to these unusual conditions.  So, in keeping with these strange weather patterns, we present some alternate views of More Mesa; views that are not often seen by most visitors to our favorite place.

We are grateful to photographer Jon Greenleaf for these haunting and engaging images. (Click on an image to see larger version.)
