High water
We’ve had quite a bit of rain here in Sacramento these past couple of weeks, and as a result, the American River is fairly high, or at least compared to how I’ve seen it since I moved here last summer. The other day I decided to walk the half mile from my house to the river to check out the water level, and I was quite surprised at what I found. As always, clicking on any of these pictures will get you a larger version.
One of the more sad things about this city is the requisite bum-in-the-alley population. Yes, I did take a picture of him sleeping. Yes, I have no soul.

I don't have a train obsession. I can quit at any time. Honest. :twitch:

Weepuls in the wild. Anyone remember these things? They were the ultimate junior high status symbol at my school. I found this little dude nestled in the dirt in an alley.

High water. For scale, the river's edge is normally another 20 feet past the end of the treeline.

I felt like I was in a bayou or something. Out toward the middle of the river, the water was rushing, but near the bank, the water was just so STILL. So neat.
.
I'm not sure what this was supposed to be, but it was kind of neat.
