After the sand storm, the haboob, came rain. A monsoon.

And the rain washed the sand away. Although there wasn't a whole lot of sand in this particular storm. All dust really.

It has been a long time between showers here and I doubt there is more than a dent in the drought deficit but we are grateful.

And pleasantly pleased at the change. We do not get much weather here as it is mostly sun and moon all the time. Clear skies. A few clouds on some days.

So any change is welcome but rain is particularly good to see. And feel.

Even Marcus enjoyed getting wet and heavily toweled after a run through it. Getting toweled is really a game to him. Do it more Dad.

The humidity is gone today, at least much lower. And we will be on to the summer soon.

I was not sure that this is Palm Springs in the photo but it is. We are standing up on the Lykken Trail along the mountain side. And that is what it looks like going out east from here, the long Coachella Valley. To the near far right is the Bob Hope hilltop and beyond that Murray's Peak.

That is enough for me.
