A damp night and a very rainy day…..

 

Our Location:

Ogilby Road, Winterhaven, California 


Breezy and damp through the night and a day fraught with rain showers. I hope you enjoy the views outside today.










And then it started to cloud over again and rain, and rain and rain. The temps are cool and long pants with heavy sweaters are a must.  Two different rainbows today, we were lucky.














Until next time…..


Take care, stay safe,


Deb

    The desert with water looks so different. Muddy shoes can create a bit more house keeping chores. Wipe your feet. :O)

      Haha, very true, I’ve packed away my rain boots, maybe I should have pulled them out.

    Hope you don't have any trouble getting in and out with the vehicles if you need to. Oh, and Merry Christmas. Vern

      Thanks Vern. Merry Christmas to you as well. I’m sure the desert will soak up the water pretty quickly and all will be well.

      It has been a wet one, hopefully it’s over by morning. Everything Wii be dry and firm for afternoon happy hour. You also got some great pics. I was surprised at the water in the wash already.

    Such a huge contrast from one moment to the next. You should have gotten in your truck, spun some donuts and let the mud fly. Don't even pretend to act like you've never done that before!

      I would never do such a reckless thing! I’m shocked you would even think such a thing! lol. I bet I could have tossed the mud a fair ways.

    I saw Tyson Wash growing by the minute. Well over 2 inches of rain .... but those rainbows make it worth it.

      They were very welcome and I was happy to stand back from the edge and just watch the water go by.

    Nice pictures of your day. Well, maybe 'nice' isn't the word, but you captured the rain but glad you got the rainbows. We didn't get the clearing in between.

      I was happy with the pics, they definitely showed what we were seeing and the black and white appearance was just how it looked. I liked the rainbows although I didn’t see the doubles the other ladies did.

      Very different. No desert smell here, I found that really odd.
