Ok ok
ok... it's been a dusty summer. Nothing but sunshine and blue skies and perfect
temperatures for the past 3 months, the gardens have loved it (thanks to lots of
water from the mountains) but the earth sure is thirsty here.
Just
to put things in perspective though - last year we had two major thunderstorms
the last week in August, big time flash floods (the first one just about caught
me on the way down from the mountains marking trails - I made it to the first
ranch and ducked in just as it let loose - the road behind me completely washed
out), the second one flooded our ranch and washed out the bridge. The High
Country ride actually had to be re-routed in places to go around the new 'lakes'
that formed after the storms.
This
year Florida has the rain and we have the dust...

Owyhee rides or BUST oops I mean dust:-)
I just spent the better part of two days removing
the Owyhee dust from my rig. I did a complete wash job inside and out,
fore and aft. I think that I got most of it. I have never seen
dust on a truck that was that hard to wash off. I think the dust is 50%
Portland cement.
