Monsoon
(click on a photo to enlarge)
I’ve been away from this blog for too long but with good reason. A close family member has been ill for some months now and I haven’t felt much like blogging. It’s time to get back to the positive side of things.
The good news is: we have a real monsoon this year! July rainfall here at the house totaled 6.31″ which is amazing considering that our total yearly rainfall for 2009 was 6.96″!! So far this year we have received just under 12″ of rain. The surrounding hillsides and mountains are visibly greening up.

Rainbows have been frequent and stunningly beautiful.
