Monsoon Madness

The monsoons are in full force here in the desert. Last week there was a nice little downpour so Derek took Toby outside to experience "wain", as Toby calls it.

Our modest attempt at rain water harvesting.

Our wet 'n' wild fun was cut short when the lightening and thunder started. Some lightening struck on a hill that we can see from our backyard, about a mile away. I said "nope" and we all hightailed it inside, much to Toby's disappointment. One day you'll learn why you don't want to get zapped, Little Man.
