Wet rose
Burning bush

Marina’s Incognito Pear Tree is confused with putting on red leaves for fall and blooming at the same time.
Sunshine and rain at the same time

The river running high from the rain
Glenda: “Whoa! That’s a lot of water!”
Rain and shine on the Rio Grande
Doppel: “Lovely light, il Paparazzo! I like looking at it in photos instead of real time in the rain.”
Jake contemplating the rising river
Wacky weather and amazing colors in the sky with clouds and river.
El Niño being the bad boy he tends to be. But the rain is good for us. Thanks, Brad.
The rain must be wonderful! The Rio Grande looks amazing!
The Burning brush is beautiful. Such a beautiful color
Thanks, Becky. It’s nice to get rain.
Instead of the sunshine after the rain…it is the sunshine during. Bet you are glad though for whatever that way .
We get rain and shine. It’s pretty weird. Nice to get the rain. Thanks, Shey.
Oh I bet…. O know not everywhere gets the level we do.
I’m always impressed by the beauty of the place you live in, Tim. Wish I could overcome my fear of flying and pay you a visit. Or maybe consider a long boat and train journey? 😸
Thanks, Herman. I did some checking, and taking a ship and then a train from Europe to Corrales would be a logistical nightmare. You would have to book a transatlantic cruise, and it looks like most of them go to Miami. To get a train from Miami to Albuquerque, you ride from Miami to Chicago and then Chicago to Albuquerque. Around three days maybe four on the train. You might have to book two separate cruises to get across the Atlantic and back. If you booked a cruise and got to Miami, you would be better off renting a car in Miami and taking a 30-plus-hour road trip to Corrales. It’s only 3,220 Km from Miami to Corrales, but you would see a good portion of the southern USA along the way.
You might not find flying to be too bad fi you tried it, but trying out flying on an international flight is not a good idea.
Thanks for checking this out, Tim. You’re absolutely right, this is a logistical nightmare. Guess the easiest way is to take some tranquillisers and sleeping pills and get on that plain…
But you need to try that on a shorter flight before trying a 14-hour flight. Laurie mentioned that big planes that fly between the USA and Europe are more boring than scary.
I’m with Glenda. That’s a lot of water!
Even more this morning. Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Love your pics, and cats, and dog, and roses, and skies!❤
Thanks, Tiffany.
You went from no water to a LOT of water, which was needed but it looks like the birds should enjoy it. and Jake seems to meditate over it.
Jake was thinking it over. Thanks, Gigi.
Yay…water! Is it still there?
The cats all look very disconcerted about the rain, though. Fab shots.
The river is running high. Thanks, Resa.
Yay!
Rain, shine, and water… a perfect combination, even if it’s a little chaotic. Great shots.
Thanks, Randall.
How great to see the river flowing .. Jake has that hurry up look! Beautiful kitties and blooms
