It’s been a really wet season for many months now and I don’t think a single month has gone by since late fall where we didn’t get a rainstorm.  Today’s was particularly hard and driving on the I-5 was pretty crazy!  The worst of it was worse than anything I remember experiencing in New York.

I love all the ways the birds tried to distract themselves from the tempting bread, especially the one that did all that stretching! The fly-by was close, but not quite…

Waiting for that one who’s brave enough to take my bread. It’s so fast you might miss it!

Cops slowing down traffic. I know it’s for our own good, but boy does it suck. Glad I wasn’t on the other side of the second video.

Blossoming, or blooming, tea is quite the art form! Check out this video of how they work. 🙂

Blossoming tea! It comes in a ball and then unfurls in the water to create this beautiful shape and and equally beautiful taste. All handmade!

Each flavor has a design using string to keep the shape. Cool, huh?

Blink and you’ll miss it! A very quick shot of the mountain range in the Pasadena area. All the mountains were capped with snow! It’s been raining a lot in Los Angeles this year and the air was so beautifully crisp, the mountains so beautifully white.

I thought drawbridges were pretty outdated, but this one is still quite active in downtown Miami!
