Wish we could get some of it in Southern Baja. Lots of plants/ trees are dying and rancheros are in serious troubles here. One day of rain in about 18 months now.



The grass is always greener....
and so, there is always a better spot in Baja

Good grief, I had heard lack of rain was a problem but I did not realize it was so severe. Has much rain/snow fell in Parque San Martir?

Haven't heard the term "Gully Washer" in a long time! We need the rain.

Oh, well...be nice to smell fresh rain and roadside blooms. :yes:

Would rather pass on any flooded vados! :rolleyes:
