More rain.

It is still raining here in Northern California. But it is not particularly cold. I would guess that the foothills of Mt. Diablo are turning emerald green, and that there is no snow up there. January and February are the prettiest months for hiking here, but you have to wait for a couple of days of sunshine, or else you'll wind up sloshing through mud. I'll try to attach a hiking photo from January or February.

It's raining here today, too. But nothing is green unless you count houses painted green. The forecast yesterday showed we should have a week of beautiful weather. (It was 72F here yesterday.) But, when I checked the forecast a couple of hours ago, it had changed and I don't like it! Our highs for this week now show mid-50s, which wouldn't be bad except we had such a warm day yesterday. I hope you're having a good day otherwise, pony.

I am still in "getting started" mode. It should be a decent day. There's actually some sun poking through now.

@TheHorse I am glad you're okay though. And, the fires never reached that far north.

@kaylachan I'll check with my friend Mike to see if his daughter's house (still standing) got some rain.

We just got a mist here today, but it rained up the road. That's okay, we didn't really need it! Nice photo! Love all the green!!

I hope our hills look pretty when the clouds lift.

The rain is supposed to hit us tonight. They say it won't be any more than an inch here - maybe scattered drops and nothing more here - we'll have to wait and see. It has been cold - but this morning wasn't particularly cold - I wasn't needing a heavy jacket anyway.

It wouldn't be much fun hiking through mud. We're heading off in the motor-home this morning but there won't be any mud involved.

@JudyEv That's hot. How are you dealing with it? I'd be at the pool.

@TheHorse It's still up and over 100F today and tomorrow then it's supposed to cool off a bit.

I miss snow. But I am glad I do not have to deal with it every day.
