concrete river...

Made up of over 700 miles of man made "concrete and pipe" river, the California Aqueduct system provides water to Los Angeles County and it's population of over 10 million. That's more people than 42 States have. For years now farmers haven't been getting the water they're allotted and paid for due to several reasons that I'm not going to get into, political according to farmers, environmental according to politicians. Los Angeles gets its water, while many farms have reverted to basically desert waste land. Took this picture off I-5 near Patterson California at the top of a hillside scenic view point.
