DRY CRIK Journal

Five days and well-over two inches of slow rain, hillsides leaking, every draw gurgling this morning. That I can actually see the creek from here indicates heavier amounts last night upstream. Short of the ‘Big One’ forecasted, we measured a little less than seven-tenths yesterday and last night. With another sixty days left in our ‘rainy season’, we’ve already accumulated more precipitation than last year. Sunny days and warming temperatures should really push the grass along with some early wildflowers. Ought to be some very pretty days this next week – time to get some work done.
