Arizona storms….but not here

The 10:00 news last night was full of information about the 69 car pile up on I10.  It made front page in this mornings paper.  I also found an article in the Dispatch about the storm knocking out power lines near Maricopa.  Fear not……the “storms” did not hit us here in Palm Creek.
We had an overcast sky all day, big billowing clouds, some flashy lightning, lots of rumbling thunder, a short burst of rather strong wind, and a nice soft rain for about an hour.  The puddles on our roads here weren’t even deep enough to warrant a barefoot stroll this time….and I don’t stroll down the street with an umbrella when its thundering and lightning!  Soooo if you heard about the storms on the news, you can rest easy.  Everything here is just fine.

This August has 5  Sundays, 5 Mondays, 5 Tuesdays, all in one  month. It happens once in 823  years. I'll probably miss the  next one.
