RAIN, RAIN, DON’T GO AWAY!

By ( 9 )

It has been a very moist spring here in Southern Utah as well as most of the Desert Southwest.  We need it and I need it for more dramatic photos.  Normally we are at around 90 degrees F but  we’ve been having highs of 65 to 75. Pics below are from the last week in and around Zion National Park.

    It has been a glorious two weeks or so in the southwest. But that’s all over now. Triple digits and clear blue skies for the weekend in Las Vegas and environs! I love these photos. What do you think my chances are if I take a ride up there this weekend? Clouds? Probably no rain, though!
