    It's been a long time since I've seen an abundance of water in Lake Shasta. California is really going through a drought.

    "It's a Snap !" has been included in the A Sunday Drive for this week. Be assured that I hope this helps to point even more new visitors in your direction.

    The cactus is a real surprise. It takes quite a while to see blooms. Must be a lucky day! Nice view of the Lake. Great pics Kathe!
