Excellent photos, old friend, and a rare glimpse of something we rarely see here--inside views of the unique private homes whose exteriors we post here so often.

Speaking of mudslides, the house where I grew up and where my parents lived on for many years was sited against a steep hillside of the typical decomposing granite you find in these parts. Debris flows like the one you pictured were an annual occurrence, until one year the hillside was taken over by some kind of wild plant in the potato family. These were able to establish their tubers into the usually hard hillside with no problem, and thereafter it was as solid as concrete.

Great bird photos, too. One day I shall give you the link to my fat cat pictures on Flickr.
