Rain on a Hot Tin Roof in Three Rivers!


The sound of rain hitting a tin roof is one of my favorite things. Last night in the middle of the night the rain on the hot tin roof of our screened porch woke me. Ruby our Boxer was cold out in the porch and jumped in bed with us to get warm. The three of us snuggled up and listened to the welcome sounds of the first rain of the fall season.

This morning the rains had stopped and we went for a hike in the mountains. The rain started again and it just poured. It was great to smell the earth after the nights rain, to see that the moss on the rocks had already turned green and to see the earth washed clean.

It is October 4th, 2008. Mark your calendars. I pray this will be a wet season and that the snow pack in the park will be high. I pray the rivers will run full and that Kaweah Lake will fill to it's highest level. I dream of wild flowers blanketing the hills and a healthy season for the world.

Laaaah Laaaaah Laaaaaah

The Concert on the Grass is one of the premiere events in Three Rivers. This was the 27th annual event and we had a wonderful time.

The concert is held on a grassy knoll in the shade of the giant oaks with birds soaring above lifted higher by the lofty sounds of great performances.



Concert goers bring blankets refreshments and enjoy a variety of performances including Classical Flamenco Guitar, Soprano Solo, a Quintet of Piano, Harp, Violin and Cello, Original Poems, Mezzo-Soprano and the Tulare County Symphony Brass Quintet.

Our community is steeped in arts and music. We have so much talent in Three Rivers.

Where in the world would you ever find a place like this?
