I made this video of the arroyo that's close to our house for those who have never visited the high desert of the American West. This is a natural arroyo that channels rain water. It starts miles to the West and is dry most of the year. However, if and when we have a heavy rain, the water starts collecting miles away and, by the time it gets to where I am, it can be a pretty good flash flood - shallow but moving pretty quick. I'm mindful of the early settlers who traversed this country in wagons and on their feet. Amazing people.
The song, 'It's The West' is by Western singer, Dave Stamey. And the words are true. The American West, in all it's various dimensions, is really a state of mind, one I love.
