      I agree Steve! Most of the year it’s pretty awesome. This August is probably one for the record books with regards to heat. I’m ready to move on 🌞 But once rains come, flowers bloom!

      Thank you! Sadly because of lack of rain we aren’t seeing as many flowers this spring. However, anytime we get rain new flowers pop up so I remain hopeful!

    flowers are so joyful. And it amazes me what grows in the desert as it is so dry.

      Yes, and we still get some growing even without the rains. But when the rains come, wow!
