Weather and RC Flyers

Today's Dispatch headline:


If you heard about strong winds and a big storm here in Pinal county, you can relax.  Your house is safe and sound here as the strong storm completely missed us.  We had a little wind and dirt but certainly nothing like they experienced in Eloy (about 20 miles south of Casa Grande).

My son sent this photo as the storm approached Eloy:



We've just had a very uneventful, casual, HOT summer here in our little paradise.  Sure could use some rain though.
