After The Rain

We were awakened this morning around 2:30 AM by loud, booming thunder and bright, flashing lightning. Shortly thereafter it began to rain.
This morning it was still cloudy and a bit cooler, so we had everything open wide.

All the plants look happy and are covered with raindrops.
Went uptown and now it is again hot and sunny; but the forecast is for rain showers until Friday. Hope so.

Rain in the desert is always a blessing. Something we Pacific Northwesterners need to remember. (Remind me I said that next February.)

Beautiful photos of the flowers.
I have got to agree with Steve coming from the same neck of the woods. Rain is a pain here in the PNW so we don’t always appreciate what it does to keep everything so green and beautiful.
