It is snowing heavily in California this winter.
The US newspapers headlines read:
- “Sierra Nevada snowpack is biggest in 22 years.”
- “Sierra Nevada historical snow fall.”
These are good news. As all this snow probably will set an end to the drought in California.
Excellent!

It is Tuesday, January 24, 7.10 pm.
It is the big “run-for-the-PCT-permit-hour”. The application window opens 7.30 pm.
Both my PC and laptop are fired up and ready.
Waiting, staring at the clock.
7.11 pm.
7.14 pm – heart rate goes up.
