The picture above is the San Gabriel dam. The pictures below are as you head more up the mountains. It had rained significantly this time last year so there was much water. I took the first one late spring, early summer of this year. The second one was taken about a week ago so you can see how much water has dried up.

This is the bridge we would pass when we used to go off-roading. Again, the first picture was earlier this year after a great rain. The second is recently showing how much water is gone. Two things to note. Check out how much greener that tree is at the center of the bridge. And check out the tall thin tree in the 2nd photo and then note how small it is in the first picture.

And this is a really old picture of the sand-rail we used to ride around down there in the canyon. What filthy fun, especially when you found spots of water that had not dried up yet and went sailing through sending water everywhere, especially on you on a hot day.

No one should ever say there is nothing to do around Los Angeles. I'll be gladly showing more next week.
