ominous.....





Extreme rainfall warnings and the Slocan River is still rising......The skies are grey and foreboding and the rain relentless....the barometric pressure makes everybody feel on edge........ambulance sirens in the distance.......mud slides have closed the highways.........Mother Nature is supreme.

Hello Susan:
This all looks most alarming, if not frightening. We do trust that all will be well with you and others.

"Mother Nature is supreme." She sure is! Are those your now soggy runners by the picnic table?

She is totally supreme. So strange how where we live we constantly struggle with not enough water, and at the same exact time there are places that are flooding.

Beauty - even in the severe. Keep safe - and send some of that rain down to Austin, will you please?

Secret Agent Woman said...

That first photo is especially evocative.
