An example of waiting

Back in AK., the streams ran almost constantly, with 100 inches of rain annually. Then, once, it didn't rain for 30 days and it was deemed a "critical" situation. I think about that. In some places around Bakersfield, it is more the norm to have dry river beds then flowing. The persistence of hardship gives us that old school toughness that knows how to stick it out over the long haul like the great prophets. Man, can she write or what?
