Rather than work on the post offline, I decided to watch a river flow through my backyard. This proved to be a bad decision, as I completely forgot what I had planned to write. So I went for a walk while the storm was winding down and here’s what I saw:

(Sorry for the blurriness, but you get the general idea.)
bad idea getting on the bridge - that is how people drown.

ReplyDeleteActually, I only took a couple steps onto the bridge (close enough to solid ground to jump should it come to that) and held the camera out farther to get the shot.
Yes, this can be dangerous. But it's also providing a bit of a chuckle, envisioning extra caution, sending in the food-taster first (dog).

My life? I wish for jail time. It would be a vacation.
Did your wife send you up on Cripple Creek? Sorry, I couldn’t resist. The whiskey river has taken my mind.

ReplyDeleteOr just Cripple.
My God Hayduke! I am among those who consider you to be very intelligent, but that was a stupid thing to do! Avoid flash flood areas right after a storm please! Are you feeling properly admonished yet?
