We got hit hard last night by a rain storm. Knocked out the power at about 2 a.m. and finally got turned back on around four. Woke up this morning to this dramatic view over Ratcliff Ridge.
Uno and I got out on the road around six and caught this dramatic washout on the way up to Morningstar.
My neighbors to the north of us just had their road redone with compacted gravel and asphalt. It wasn't compacted entirely, but, well, you get the drift what water can do when it flows down hill.
I had a history talk out at Verrado, in Buckeye this morning. Long drive, 59 miles, great people—all retired. Sold some books, got some new subscribers and made some new friends. Worth the trip.
Every once in a while, we get the other kind of storm.
Scenes I'd Like to See
She had no idea what was ahead of her, but she took off for Santa Fe anyway.
She made some major waves and the Plaza, the town and the Southwest would never be the same. And they called her Las Tules (the reeds).
"Well behaved women seldom make history."
