Because there is still some moisture in the ground here. The lake has dried up, but the ground has not completely dried out yet. The remaining lake is about 1/4 mile to the right. I'll probably be going back with my DSLR and some hiking boots. Cycling shoes were not very good for this. As it was I spent 5 minutes whacking the mud out of the cleats so I could get back on the bike.

but why is the grass green? Here in our 10 year drought there was nothing green. Luckily it is finally over. I hope you get some rain too.
