A Little Prayer for Rain

Slight Rain

“Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby.”  —Langston Hughes

Today. Some rain may fall today.

Our terrible CA drought. All this pale and red earth should be underwater. #drought #folsomlake #northfork #california #water

Almost two weeks ago, Jeff and I went for a hike up to the North Fork of the American River, where it flows into Folsom Lake. Water levels are so terribly low. All the pale and red dirt you see should be covered by the river.

Our terrible CA drought. North Fork of the American River at Rattlesnake Bar State Park, Newcastle, Ca. All this pale and red earth should be underwater. #drought #folsomlake #northfork #california #water

While the rest of the country freezes to death, California is so very thirsty.
