It's The Wonder Of Nature, Baybee!
I awoke early this morning to the most amazing sound, the sound of water falling on the roof! And listening more closely, I could hear it falling all around the house - on the trees, on the sidewalk, on the street.....Can you believe it?
I think in the old days they had a name for this phenomenon. Rin? Roin? Something like that. I'm just glad that I was lucky enough to experience it this once.

We've had over twice that so far, and the monsoon season is just getting under way. I've gone to jogging at 2:00 AM because that's when there is the least rain about. It's ridiculous. Even old timers are scratching their heads. The desert is in magnificent bloom, though.
