This storm is now snowing in Wyoming, Utah, Oregon and Washington

 The rain has been relatively constant now since Wednesday but it has lightened up now to where it is beginning the winds of the next storm. The light rain was nice in that it is giving us the moisture we need in California in our reservoirs to last through Spring and summer until the next rains that start sometimes as early as September or October but not this year 2024 it didn't do that.

So, the light rain soaking everything without blowing all the trees down and putting out power (at least this storm has been nice). 

However, all that is about to change in the next storm because there will be gusts up to 50 mph which might bring down trees. I had wanted to get up early this morning to see the King Tides of 6.8 feet but I couldn't get myself up to do that because we had been up late last night for New Years eve. Maybe tonight or tomorrow. What the oceans can do during storms and King Tides can be quite impressive but also very destructive to the coast line many places. It is during King Tides that trees sometimes are undermined by the ocean as well as many bushes and the ocean water often kills them as the oceans rise because most trees except for Kukui and Coconut palms don't like seawater that much. But, Coconuts can wash thousands of miles and land on an island and set down roots right there at the ocean which is one of the remarkable things about Coconut trees besides the fact that you can actually live on coconuts alone if you have to in an emergency as long as you eat them and drink them at every stage and live right where they grow. But, you wouldn't want to do this except in an emergency because this would give you the runs but you would still survive in an emergency like in the movie "Cast Away" with Tom Hanks.

Cast Away turns 25! The production paused for a year so Tom Hanks could lose 50-55 pounds and grow his hair. During the break, director Robert Zemeckis made a little side project, What Lies Beneath, with Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford. Both movies collectively earned $700M.

Cast Away was released on this day in 2000 🏝️ Cast Away hit in 2000 and people were honestly stunned by how quiet and emotional it was. Critics loved it, audiences showed up in huge numbers, and it felt like one of those rare movies that everyone agreed worked, even though half of it is just one guy and a volleyball. Tom Hanks is unreal here. This is one of those performances where you forget you are watching a movie star. He carries the entire thing on his back, barely talks for long stretches, and still keeps you locked in. Wilson becoming an emotional gut punch is wild, but that is how good Hanks is. Helen Hunt does great work too with limited screen time. As a survival drama, this is top tier. It is patient, lonely, and raw, and it respects the silence instead of trying to hype everything up. It feels honest about what isolation does to a person. It was a massive hit, making over 400 million worldwide, which is insane for such a restrained movie. Hanks earned an Oscar nominat

Cast Away (2000), directed by Robert Zemeckis, ends with a silence that feels alive. Chuck stands alone at a crossroads after losing everything and finding himself again. There are no words, no explanations, only the wind and an open road waiting for him. You can feel the weight of it all, the pain, the calm, and the quiet courage it takes to begin again. It is not a grand ending. It is simple, real, and deeply human. It feels like life itself. #cinema #movierecommendation #film #movie #castaway

Cast Away Released December 22, 2000 Did you know... - actual lines of dialogue were written for Wilson to make the interactions with Hanks more natural - production was halted for one year so Hanks could lose 50 lbs and grow out his hair -an early draft had Good/Bad Chuck personalities interacting with each other -some of the footage was shot on the mainland with highways edited out of the background -the theatrical trailer angered fans because it showed Hanks escaping the island at the end of the film -other than the songs in the beginning, no original musical score is heard until Hanks' character leaves the island
