Early morning sky

Willy Nelson would be “On the road again!” Well! Here I am in a rut again.

Big Gulp

A lost soul, perhaps

The dark line on the opposite bank is the flash flood line, about 6 feet (two meters) above the current natural flow of the river.

The moon will be full tomorrow night, but we have not seen it the last few nights because of clouds.

Dawn

Dusk last night. Dusk tonight.

A flash flood this afternoon left piles of debris where I have been walking on the riverbed.

The temp was 101.1º F (38.39ºC) this afternoon before cloud cover brought the temperatures down.

Milk Chocolate Water

Timothy Price42 Comments

Not that we are getting a few thunderstorms in the evenings, the runoff turns the water flowing in the Rio Grande the color of chocolate milk. Inspired by the milk chocolate water flowing in the Rio Grande, I wrote and recorded a song of the same name and made it into the above music video.

The river was higher at dawn from runoff from thunderstorms north and west of us. By dusk, most of the water had receded.

Dawn (water). Dusk (mud).

Eastside Coyotes

Timothy Price39 Comments

Jake and I were walking on the riverbed at South Beach this morning when a couple of coyotes appeared on the east side of the river and started barking at us. They had a lot to say. A few weeks ago, the three coyotes we often see on the west side of the river walked down on the riverbed with us to get a drink of water. They were silent, and did all their business like, “Don’t mind us!” Jake and I were standing about 25 feet from the westside coyotes.

Dawn

Dusk. We’ve had a little rain the past few nights, so the river is up a little from the runoff.

The Rio Grande is slowly drying up. I was able to wade across the shallow point above and walk out onto an island north of the beach.
