Leaves Against a Stormy Sky
Playground
Walking down in the creek bed, I turned and saw this. I had a good laugh – a picnic table, a rocking dog, and what could be his yellow dog dish!
Mushrooms in the Mud
The other day, record-breaking rain. Today and yesterday, a break from it; tomorrow more is due. I went out to the local park, to survey the differences, and just get out of the house. And these are what I found, barely 2 inches tall! I rolled around here and there, on my side, upside down, on my stomach, and came home with a few good shots and very, very muddy clothes.
Edge
In the last 24 hours we got 4 inches / 10 cm rain. This was taken last Saturday. I should get out today to see how the same creek is looking . . . we actually had to pump out the back yard with a submersible pump and hose as the water was creeping over the patio. Terra Firma in our neck of the world has a lot of clay, and the result is poor drainage, made even poorer, in our case, by too many impervious walls. Overall, we are fine, but when a storm like the ones we are having hits, flooding and catastrophe follow.
