After the Rain

 22 Jan 2024

   Happy New Year All!

    Today I got rid of some cabin fever after the rain stopped. I had 6" of rain over the last weekend. I didn't do too much some of the roads are closed due to fallen trees and mud/debris flows and wires down. 

   I drove up to Miller Property County Park, it is a new park and so far undeveloped. It is fairly unknown so not much visited. The creek, Kings Creek was still up about a foot though there was evidence it had been 4-6" higher earlier. Still the trail on the far side was under water. I just took some pictures as I walked around and ate an apple. There are fallen trees around and 2 into the creek as it was windy last night. The one picture with a broken tree on the hillside I think all 3 pieces are from the same tree.

   Anywho, it was nice to get out. I wish my ankle would let me hike again. Word to the wise; Don't get old!

Enjoy!

The last pic is the largest redwood tree in the park, those upper branches are HUGE, perhaps 50' long and 36" in diameter near the trunk, 120' in the air.
