July 2017 ending

After a stretch of hot and humid days we had a perfect Sunday for a walk.



I took these shots at Lake Lynn in Raleigh, NC.



Not much to say but I like to post at least a couple of times a month so later I can look back on the timing in nature.



We've had so much rain that in some regards this looks more like spring than summer.



With the heat if we hadn't had a lot of rain the vegetation would look a lot droopier.



If anything we've had an over abundance of rain for many years.



I still haven't forgot what a bad drought we had from around 2005 through 2008.



In 2007/2008 the local newspaper would say how many days were left before the reservoir would be used up.



Since the Falls Lake is a 12,410 acre reservoir it's incredible to remember that.



Fortunately it never did dry up and as I said if anything we've had an overabundance of rain for years now.



That's not true for the whole state but it is for where I live in the NC Piedmont but of course with weather it can always turn on a dime.
