Our stormy weather 12-06-14

After eight months of little rain we enjoyed the rainy weather this last week.  I took these pictures whilst driving home from San Diego last Sunday  - no rain, but gorgeous clouds.  



This is in the Pendleton Marine Base where access is restricted except for the lanes of the 
I-5.  The buildings on the hillside are multistory, but they are just shells for training purposes. 

At the north end of Pendleton there is an inspection station where sometimes the Highway Patrol and the Immigration officers stop all cars for inception.  One never knows if it will be open or closed and the traffic can back up for miles.  I was lucky and the portal was open. 

I stopped to drop off some things with a friend who lives on top of a ridge that separates Pendleton from San Clemente.  This was the view from the end of the road - the light spots on the ocean are where the light beams come through the clouds.  There were "streams" but my camera didn't pick them up.  

it was quite beautiful, but a picture doesn't do it justice.
