Beautiful Monsoon Season

In 2013 the Arizona Monsoon season was a literal "drop in the bucket".  This season our buckets are running over.  The water from the heavens, and they have been glorious, has been a godsend.

My sister Barbara moved into her darling house on Seneca in Benson and every evening we go over after our walk and sit on her bench, drink a little wine and watch the sun go down.  The particular time we watched the downpour from her garage.



Barbara is doing some beautiful stone work in the front of her house.  Karl, her landscape architect is doing a fantastic job with a variety of rocks.  Even the rain didn't wash his handiwork away.




Here are some of the treasures we have found in our desert.



I'm just so happy that I finally have some grass in my courtyard.   It's such a peaceful place!
