Seeing 2012 (#73)

For your consideration:  taken in brilliant back-lighting, mid-morning, just off of Hwy 25 near Hwy 101, being an early leg of our multi-segment return voyage to Panoche valley and its environs.

For anyone suffering from hydrophobia — a veritable nightmare.

For the rest of us, at the very least this spells apparent relief from any local drought conditions.  Still, the thought of volunteering to attempt grasping and shutting off that valve might give one pause . . .

Posted in no small part due to the quite unexpected forecast for possible showers today . . .
