DESERT SPICE
It is no secret that four storms will be slamming into California this week and most will get over the mountains and into the desert.
Right now, it is coming down in buckets.
Booker and I walked earlier to avoid the rain. I thought it was a good idea.
Well, it turned out to be half good. The rains came when we were about half way through. But we did OK. Towels still work well. The house is warm.
The best half, the first half was very pleasant because there had been some showers this morning. Enough to create the great blend of sage and creosote that marks our particular area. It is heaven. Exotic and rich. And, since it doesn't rain much, rare.
How nice to have it along for our walk.
