It’s Only November and The Creek is Rising

At the far end of the Acre we have a small valley that slopes westward towards a creek that empties into the San Luis Rey River a couple of miles away.

Normally, the valley is dry, lined with coastal live oaks and a favorite hangout for the chickens. During the rainy season in winter the valley can turn into a small creek — though this happens infrequently, and usually toward the end of the winter in El Niño years.
