Devil's Gate Dam

I've driven past the dam, built in 1920, about a billion times and always wanted to take some pix. During the Station Fire I took one, but it was dark and I didn't really get to explore. I finally got the chance last Saturday when I walked around the park a but in the rain. Apparently there's a lot more to explore however, and I'm already antsy to go back.

I shot a roll of film while I was there as well, but I think it will be a while before that's developed. Will just have to wait and see on those.

A walk in the rain: The Hahamongna Watershed

I took a walk Saturday in the Hahamongna Watershed and around Devil's Gate Dam. The park sits at the top of the Arroyo, just beneath JPL. Though it was empty except for a few joggers while I was there it's apparently a popular place for horseback riding and dog walking. I only saw a fraction of the park because of the rain and am looking forward to checking it out again. Some of the pix I took:

Looking through old pix tonight...

and came across this portrait of my grandmother.
