Brackenridge Park, A Day Following a Storm

Wednesday, January 25, 2012

Today's photos:















It was a dark and stormy night. Okay, that isn't the best literary opening (It never worked for Snoopy in the cartoon series), but it really was a dark and stormy night last night. Twelve hours later when I arrived at Brackenridge Park, the San Antonio River was still above bankfull. It had obviously been much higher earlier in the day.

South Texas weather has accurately been characterized as perpetual drought periodically broken by torrential rain. More than three inches of rain had fallen on the river's watershed overnight. The rain is something to celebrate.

  1. Gorgeous! Only you could capture such a lush, post-torrential rain world. And I'm so glad you did.
