We have finally gotten some rain! Our desert has been in a drought, so we are very grateful for the 2-3 inches of rain that fell in the last few days.
Behind our house is the Canada del Oro wash (arroyo). It is very wide and collects a great deal of run off from smaller washes during a rain storm. In Catalina, there is only one road with a bridge that goes over the wash and everyone needs to use it when the rains are heavy. Two days ago Don was driving up our road and saw a helicopter and emergency vehicles, so he pulled off. Some lady had tried to cross the wash at the bottom of her dirt road instead of going over to the bridge (less that 1 mile away) to cross. Don took a couple of pictures for me.
