We get antsy here in Malibu at this time of year, ready for the persistent morning overcast of May and June to end. We're near the tipping point, though, a mere 11 days away -- the summer solstice,

So here's another shot from the archives, a brilliantly sunny day at the Point Dume headlands, one of the prettiest places on earth and, as it happens, one of the favorite spots of today's birthday girl, expat Californian, Melissa Lion.

Happy Birthday, Melissa! We miss you!
