Drone PIcs

I used one of my very own personal drones to take aerial views of a playa lake, to show what it is supposed to look like when it is full. It was nothing but a small pond before the rains came. 















 

More Pics

It is getting hard to use this blogger interface, for some reason, but let me try these pics, of Lubbock during our recent rains...









That went well, so I'll try a few more.








That only took five tries.

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.
