More Great Stuff!

I think we got these pics the day before Memorial Day. Our Memorial Day was one of the best I can recall. Days like that make me very happy.

More Pics From The Rain

It actually rained a lot! All those little playa lakes that were almost dry are nearly overflowing now, and that is good!

These are all the kinds of things I like so well. 

Photos In The Rain

After Tech Terrace Park, narrowly escaping, we went to another area for more photos. This residential/industrial area near I-27 has no pull at all at city hall because it is poor. You can't get anything done there, no repairs or improvements, no instant response from law enforcement, because the area is poor. 

 We spent a lot of time in this humble part of town, among humble people in a humble neighborhood, and in that whole time we saw not one patrol car, not one traffic control vehicle. 

WET LUBBOCK

This is a new photo series. You could also call it Lubbock After The Rain. First pics are of a local park, with water in it.

These were taken in Tech Terrace Park. 

Read 'em and weep. Lots of rules!

 It's a nice park, but you'd better read the rules!

Lots Of Rain Across The Area

Lawns that were parched have turned green overnight and the playa lakes have recovered at least a few feet of water. The local cotton farmers have reason to be happy. I'll have some non-drought photos up soon. I took photos in a water-logged park and had to get a bit muddy in order to take the rest. It was worth it. What a change. Prayers were indeed answered. I feel a bit more optimistic. Maybe we are about to turn the corner here, and maybe we'll have a year with at least nearly normal rainfall.
