Rain, Rain Come Again!

Last night we had our first summer rain storm. I don't know if it was an official monsoon storm, but we were thankful for the water. Unfortunately, rain didn't fall for a long time, but the lightening lasted for a couple of hours. The plus side is that the dirt in the lots got wet and so we don't make quite as big of a dust plume when entering or exiting the lot...the minus side...it rained mud. It is a unique experience. Because it is so dry in the valley, we have a lot of dust storms leaving large amounts of dust in the air, so when it rains for a short period of time, the dust gets wet and falls. This morning I went out to my car and it was even dirtier than it was yesterday :)


(and between you and me, that is saying something!)
