It’s actually raining in Las Vegas, so rare! I hope that this year’s monsoon season will dump huge amounts of rain because Lake Mead needs it so badly. The drought here has been going on for many years now which is really terrible! All of this while the east coast gets drowned every week…

Seems like we all need rain! We are already in a drought this year here too.
The whole world needs fresh water!
That looks like quite the downpour. We’ve had no shortage of rainy days here in Ontario this spring.
It was a nice rain, it just didn’t last long enough…
I was hoping the rain would be enough to clean my car, but alas, it just made it dirtier.
That sucks, the desert dust infiltrates everything it seems. My truck is in the garage most of the time and still gets fairly dusty. It rained here for about 20 minutes but it wasn’t a super hard downpour unfortunately. We need a good hard rain for a week straight to help Lake Mead out! Have a dandy weekend. 🍻
Australia gets droughts, then floods, then droughts then bush fires, They don’t even follow a pattern and can last from months to years. But then, it’s always been like that. That’s why people live near the coast and/or along rivers that follow tree choked mountain ranges. All the good farming land is smothered by housing estates, skyscrapers and industry leaving many of the farms (to feed the millions) further inland where droughts and flooding rains is the norm. I wouldn’t want to live in LA, Arizona, LV and places, – or in the Great Australian outback. I love grass, green leaves, colourful flowers, native critters and smell the ocean. — I’m just like the million others who live on the coast, 🙂
Las Vegas isn’t for everyone, for sure! It’s scorching hot in summer, and we have scorpions that love to get in your home. It makes zero sense to cover all of the good farm land with concrete. I’m this happens everywhere. I remember seeing the major bush fires in Australia about three years ago or something like that, so terrible!
Looks like a nice little rain. I thought the forest fires were along the east coast?
As far as I know all of the fires are on the west coast but I could be very wrong. Hopefully this season won’t bring more fires, so sad! Congrats on your new dog, so adorable!
Your right – got my directions backwards. 🙄
No biggy! I have a strong sense of direction, always have.
I get lost in our house. 🙄
Your kidding, right!
Well maybe – but I do have a terrible sense of direction.
Yay for GPS in your device! I learned to navigate in the early 80s, long before cell phones and GPS devices. You use landmarks and of course street names.
I use GPS to navigate when Dan is driving. They don’t help much when I am lost in a bank or doctor’s office.
😂☺️❤️
Now and then we just need it….
Our drought is terrible, we need a week of heavy rain!
Yes, I recognize it.
I’m sure you do haha! It’s just not the normal thing down here so it’s almost exciting! 😂
Yeah, I understand. Just like sunshine here.
