    Rain!!! Glorious Rain!!!

    WOO-HOO!!! IT'S RAINING!!!!!!!

    That may not seem like anything to get excited about for most of you, but we haven't gotten any rain here in Phoenix since Feb. 22nd! That's quite a dry spell even here in the Sonoran Desert. And since May & June are historically the driest months here, it was looking like we wouldn't see any rain until our monsoon season starts in July.

    Sorry, no pictures of me in my kilt splashing in the puddles (before they dry up). Just couldn't contain my excitement...

    Happiness? I'd settle for being less annoyed!!!

    My fiance and I left Los Angeles on April 27th to move back to Florida. One of the things we really disliked about the LA area was the lack of rain.

    It hasn't rained since we got here.

    Glad to hear yours was fun!

    Like a lot of us in the south, Florida has not been getting as much H2O these days. I grew up in Florida starting around 1967. I remember before I left in 1994, noticing over the years a departure from the tropical days I experienced as a youth.
    I will be spending a week there starting on the 22nd and getting married on the beach, watch it rain. :smirk:

    I certainly understand what you mean, G.L., from when I lived there. Four months of sunny weather, without even a cloud in the sky, it wasn't natural!!

    Congratulations and best wishes to you, Fox! I hope that you get the weather you want. I'm just trying really hard not to ask if your fiancée's initials aren't D.S.

    Thanks for the "well" wishes. Maybe because it's late, but the initials D.S are not clicking.

    "Impossible, it doesn't rain in May"....I was saying while I rode my bike home in thirty mile an hour winds and intermittent sprinkles.
