through the windshield looking at carson street spillway. 10:14 a.m. thursday, december 23, 2021
outside the car and into the storm; peaceful, light rain, spillway is filling from two days of steady rain.
lake trash, because public works doesn’t look at the weather report . . .
more trash and leaves blocking the culvert; fall & winter at the same time. it happens here.
looking south from the bridge
who says we don’t have beachfront property in carson city?
more from the spillway . . .
hey, where are the ducks?
