Monsoon Season

Saturday, July 4, 2009


Rain Cloud from the Sky - Near Phoenix.


Saguaro and the Cloud - I17 heading north.


Building Momentum - I17 Heading North.

July is the beginning of the raining season, also called monsoon season. Before I moved here, I thought the term monsoon is reserved for raining season in India/Bangladesh area, but it's also used here. It's really nice not have to water the lawn, and just rely on the rain to soak the yard.
