San Diego Part 1: Silver Strand Beach Sunset/Going out on the Bay

I went with my family (Mom, Dad, Isabelle, and Brianna) to San Diego for the holidays, and got some good field recordings. I’m going to put them in the shows in the order I recorded them in, which presents some challenges, especially with the overall narrative. The two field recordings in this episode are from silver strand beach and from San Diego bay, where we spent a couple hours out on the water. You’ll hear waves, winches, and the voices of all those present (which makes it a little less sleep inducing this week, sorry, we’ll get back to no voices this week).

When I was taking the field recording on silver strand, the sun was setting, we got there just in time to see it approach and go under the horizon line, which meant a whole lot of deep oranges and blacks and maybe some grey-green around the edges, and as the sky got darker the street lights came on and the stars started poking through. We saw Venus!
