At the Creek

Hello!  These pictures were taken on March 24th.

Have a good day!

November Creek

These pictures are from a walk to the creek last week when the weather was still unseasonably warm. It has cooled off since then and feels more like autumn now.

To the Creek

Here are some of the landscapes, plants and things that caught my eye several days ago on a quick walk to the creek and back. This area is receiving a lot of rain today. If I do go for a walk after the rain, I won't visit the creek because of the possibility of flash flood.

Lots of lizard activity, fun to watch, haven't seen any snakes yet this year.

We had some weird weather yesterday when fog and dust were hiding the mountains:

Almost back to normal weather here today, except that it feels cool for April.

That's about it for now.

Have a great day!
