All of our Kansas rain has washed most of the salt and grime away. I am not the best at cleaning things.

I'm really good at cleaning during resto projects, but not otherwise.

I just discovered Speed Week has been canceled this year. The Bonneville salt flats are flooded with water.

It's a good thing we went last year, Weld. The weather was beautiful.

It's a salt lake again!

I'm also glad we went last year. That was a major bucket list item for me.

Apparently the salt flats are normally flooded during winter, which is the wet season. Here is a photograph from Wikipedia.
