Rain

This is Huston Creek in happier times.  It's been dry for a couple of years.  We received nearly 5" of rain from this past storm, but even that amount wasn't enough to revive the creeks up here because, after nearly 10 months with no measureable rainfall, the earth quickly soaked it all up.  The hoped for snowfall of 2 feet in Big Bear didn't materialize either.  They got quite a bit of rain and between 3 and 6 inches of snow.  I'm crossing my fingers and praying that we get more rain...
