Summer is here and that means we get to see a lot of brown outdoors: dried leaves, dried grass, and dust.

On this same road though not in this area but from where this bridge used to be, we have encountered a “sand storm” where strong winds blew off the sand from the dry river. These are not actually sands from the river bed but from dried lahar (or mud flow from a volcano).

I’d rather it is hot with some rain showers than have a lot of rains which cause flooding. Of course, the hot weather means crops die too but too much rain causes more damage to people and properties than just dying crops.

I have long wanted to take  photo of this chapel.

Whenever we pass during rare opportunities, the road is full of cars and the chapel grounds is full of church-goers.

Last Sunday, on our way home from visiting my parents, I asked hubby to stop so I can try to take a photo or two of the San Roque Chapel with the lighted Christmas lights and lanterns.

I said I will try because taking night photos using my P&S camera without a tripod is an impossible task but I think my photo is “passable”.

In lieu of the absence of a tripod, I just held my breath and stood like a pole while I took the shot, several shots in fact.
