The Wet Season

Yesterday, we ventured out for a look at the gulches around us. It's been raining consistently for about a week, so we took advantage of the break in the action. When I say rain, I mean torrential, pounding downpours. Everything is green and happy, and the grass around our place is saturated and squishy-wet. No water shortages around here! Below are a few shots of the neighborhood, including one of the gulch that I took on February 3rd, before the rains began.
