I took this in the spring of 2013. Last spring, things looked just as dry. The storm that's in Northern California right now is supposed to travel down here by early Friday morning. The weather people are predicting snow levels down to the 6,000 foot level in Southern California but I'm betting it will be a lot higher, like around 9,000 feet and up, because this storm is coming from Hawaii. The weather people call it "The Pineapple Express" when the storms come from this direction, and I can't ever remember low snow levels with these storms. But...I sure hope they're right on the amount of rain that's supposed to fall. They're saying up to eight inches. The lakes, which are shrinking incredibly fast, could really use it.
Dear Victoria - this is a beautiful winding road. Will be praying that rain will be coming your way and that much of it falls and makes a difference. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteSo nice to meet you Victoria... I found you while visiting Debbie (above)
ReplyDeleteYou have a beautiful blog, and the winding road is very familiar and so beautiful.. I too, live in California, and am awaiting our much needed rain...
I love all your photos on the side bar. Especially Miss Rose!

ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about you when I hear about rain in California -- here's hoping you get a gracious plenty -- but without damage!
ReplyDeleteSo many lovely roads around your area! This one would not be out of place in Middle Earth if you took up the tar!
