The Monsoons have arrived in Arizona

These pictures were taken of the park across the street from our house there was 3 to 4 feet of water
The lake on the grass
People swim and boogie board on this when we get the rains

The playground in the park
They say in this particular storm we got almost 3 inches of rain in a 2 hour period, it came down so hard and so fast with the wind blowing, it was kind of awsome to see but only from the back porch, I had went to the store right before it started, got to the store did not get out of the car went back home was drenched from the driveway to the house, Steve then weathered the storm and headed to the store, he was pretty wet when he got home.

I guess the Monsoon really has began there. Looks like fun. It brings back memories of when the gutter going down by mom and dads house in Sandy would run so fast that we would ride it down. Remembering the fun times. Love you
