Who’s watching the shop?


The Weather Gods must be on vacation.  Our first significant rain/thunder/lightning happened May 26th, a Monday evening, around 8:30 P.M. almost 3 weeks early this season. This was followed by a couple of cloudy days with short showers.   Two days ago in the very early morn the low temperature was 82o F when I arose for an early morn exercise walk to the commode and it peaked at 91o as I sat at my laptop at noontime with an overhead fan on plus my small desktop clip-on blasting air into my face.  We´ve been actually looking forward for the rains to become a reality and give us some welcome cooling.  Occasionally we experience a light evening drizzle, an early AM drizzle, and a couple of days ago a steady all day  shower with an early AM temperature of 770. 
Today our almost 6 year old next door neighbor, Eta, is playing on Dolores Kindle Fire out on the veranda while waiting for the shade to cover some more of the pool so we can go swimming.  The pool water temperature is now around 85 degrees, so while not very refreshing it’s still wet.
Wonders of wonders!  Started raining lightly at 7 PM…Update... its now quit at 8 PM…oops, here it comes with thunder and lightning.  Time to go outside onto the veranda and watch!  Lo que será, sera,  - más o menos.
