Listener, Lisa, sent us a photo of where she typically listens to our podcast. It’s very tranquil. We thought we’d share.
From Lisa: Humboldt Bay (the south end) is on the right and the Pacific ocean is there on the left…
The road is several miles long and its absolute beautiful.
I usually save your podcast to enjoy out there.
