Monsoons have definitely arrived, totally on schedule.
We had beautiful weather on the Fourth of July, and then the very next day the
monsoon weather moved in.
It's fast, heavy, and leaves standing water everywhere!
Since we live on a county maintained dirt road, this always presents a problem
when torrential rains do come our way.
Several years ago Joe's truck ended up in the ditch after several days of
heavy rain, and he and David had to get the tractor to pull him out.
Last year, Rachel ended up in the ditch!
Another tractor rescue!
This year it was Jonathan's turn. He has four wheel drive, and can usually get
through when others can't.
Not so fortunate this time!
This morning, Joe got the tractor out and since we hadn't had any more rain
in the last 24 hours, he and Jonathan were able to get his truck out of the
muck fairly easily.
But my goodness, his truck was a mess!
Not two hours later we had another torrential rain, and he decided to head
back to Tucson immediately!
He has a plane to catch tomorrow!
