Lower Deadfall Lake, California (August 9, 2025)

Google maps labels the biggest Deadfall Lake as “Deadfall Lakes”. That’s actually Middle Deadfall Lake. The one pictured above is a bit northwest, and quite a bit smaller–especially in summer, of Middle Deadfall Lake. Signs near here say “Toad Lake”, but Toad Lake is actually about four miles from here.

Kansas @ Bi-Mart Amphitheater

I went to my first concert at the Jackson County Fair in 10 years last month. Speaking of firsts… Kansas was supposed to be my first concert way back in 1982 at the Cow Palace near San Francisco. However, the show was canceled so this was my first time seeing them, almost 43 years later.
