Crazy Monsoon Weather

This past week has been great for the Monsoon rain. I think it has rained everyday this week. Houghton-the main road out to our house-which is a two lane road has been flooded about three times. There is no other place for the water to run except over the road. Chris LOVES driving through the washes and splashing the water everywhere. He says puddles were made for splashing. Thank goodness I have new tires on the car. Anyways after one really bad storm (I think there was three right in a row), a storm would come and then there would be a break for about 20 minutes then another would hit. The wind blew over a tree in our backyard. Here is the picture of the poor downed tree. Luckily it can be saved. We called our landlord and she sent someone out to look at it. Chris and him will be standing the poor tree back up today.
