Rainwater

I went back to this vacant lot the other night to try to get another capture, and all of the water was gone. We had a week of heavy rain here, but I think that's over for the year, and we can expect the advent of summer in a few months.

Another picture posted this evening to reassure cat lovers that all is well with them in the DQ:

A very beautiful tropical scene - I would guess that the rain would have brought on the desert flowers ? V
