When it rains, it pours

Albuquerque has only had less than 2/10 of an
inch of rain in the last 8 months. 
There has been a heat wave that caused
one of the worst droughts in history.
It has been scorching hot and dry.
So on July 20,2011 when it started to rain
we all shouted for joy.  And it poured at that.
You can see in this photo that the road is
flooded.

Another photo with the flooding roads.

The temperatures cooled off as well,,
and so we could not keep the kids in the house.
They were so excited about the rain that
they went outside and played in it.
This is Addi-Belle.

The seat was too wet to sit on.
