Monsoon

We have actually had some Monsoon weather. I have caught glimpses of its effect in past seasons but am told not as they usually are. Had some seriously dumped rains to fill parks but not this cooling effect, so this is a good thing.

The Monsoons have been effective this past week in the fact that we have had some clouds to cool things off and the temperatures have been below 100 degrees! This comes after record breaking heat of mid nineties as the over night lows and teens in the daytime. Whew!

They have also dumped some rain on recently burned ground and caused some flooding in Flagstaff.

Another interesting thing is that the dam on the Rio Salado burst and Tempe Town lake is no more.They believe the dam failure was sun and heat related
It is now a big empty mud pit of decaying fish. Not so pretty.
They are rebuilding the dam.

Before

David's Bronco is constantly morphing into something else. Here is the new half cab with racing seats, role bar, and five point harnesses or seat belts.

He does all this work himself. He cut the new half cab from an old top salvaged from somewhere. He continues to astound me.

Good work Dave.
