Monsoon

OK, to the folks in Puerto Vallarta and points south, a monsoon is one thing - torrential rain that fuels the rain forests and jungles - and sometimes overwhelms the rivers.  To those of us in the good ol' US of A, it's something else.  Our monsoon brings rain to our very thirsty lawns, and a feeling of contentment amongst those of us to gather on the porch and watch the rain come down.

Here are a couple of shots out our back door.  The first, a "mini-monsoon" that occurred on July 4th - while the sun was shining.  And the second, which occurred one day later when it clouded over and dumped - if even for a few minutes.

Let the rains continue!
