Odessa in the rear view mirror

So glad yesterday's and today's Odessa trips are behind us, and my husband is happy with his cataract surgery.

I hastened to the oasis hoping to satiate myself in odes for a few days. Coming from Alpine I saw where rains had been spotty. Sunshine through the clouds was spotty too.


Terlingua Ranch road had obviously had a recent deluge, but by the time I neared the oasis, not a drop anywhere. Figures.

I arrived before 8 PM and it was already getting dark out. But I'll get a full day tomorrow. Have to water too. Nothing at the oasis has had any precipitation for 10 days. Can't procrastinate any longer. Luckily, I can water and hunt odes at the same time. Just means the inconvenience of carrying binoculars and camera on me while I drag hoses around, etc.

Beebrush is blooming everywhere. Maybe some interesting butterflies will show up too.
