Rain all day today in the desert
It started to rain today about 11:00 am and has not stopped. It is a desert rain, a nice gentle, constant rain. I do not remember rain like this other than during the hurricane season for the year and a half I have lived here. Things will look beautiful tomorrow, all lush and green. (or more correctly: lusher and greener) At school today the kids went crazy of course, like they always did in Minnesota when it snowed unexpectedly. Our dear friends, Brian and Vicki, arrive on Friday so they can enjoy the lush, green desert. This sounds crazy, but it is nice to have a change from the blue skies and sunny weather we have day after day here. When I woke up this morning, late, because there was no sun, I could not believe the cloud cover. Thus the rain this late morning..that continued all day. Change from routine is always nice. I know that a change from ice and cold would also be nice for most people I know living to my north. Life is tough here in paradise!

I wonder how many inches of snow that would equal.
