This morning it rained a bunch…1/4”. That’s not much for most places but it is for here, especially with the decades long drought. The mountains got a fresh coat of white, including the Uncompahgre. The wind blew all day. I walked anyway, winter coat and all. It’s supposed to freeze tonight. Unfortunately most of the fruit in the area is already lost. The record warm temps in March got it all budded out and then it froze. And next week we’re back to record highs at least twenty degrees above normal. Nikon P950
