The Australian Flag is for the man that I meet who was here from Australia, He was working across the street from the White Rock Creek Trail and it's Greenbelt where these images were shot. He had gotten out of the office a bit and had walked along the train. He had also commented on how clear the water was as we watched it flow on it's way to White Rock Lake then to the Trinity River and finally on its final flow into the Gulf of Mexico.
The gentleman seemed to be impressed that such a large urban area would have this type of nature so close. It is a plus for those of us in the Dallas Metroplex. The trail system is one of the finest in the south and southwest. Greenbelts are such a wonderful way to keep nature close at hand, for sure.
With a drought year, getting a 10-inch rain fall and then these current systems from Pacific Hurricanes and the jet stream dipping down to where it should be again allows waves of low-pressure systems to move across us one after another bringing the fall rains, even the grass has come out of its dormant state and started growing again. And, we have had a frost already on top of that. It's a crazy world today, folks.
There is a light rain falling since last night and as this day moves along, the heavy rain is due later this afternoon and into the night bringing falling temps along with it. I'm house-bound today.
