It RAINED!!!!!

You know you live in Nevada when rain is a cause for celebration! It has been hot and dry, and westerly winds from California has us completely socked in with smoke. Weeks and weeks of smoke.

So when the clouds rolled in yesterday afternoon, there was a sense of fear, because in Nevada, thunderstorms bring fire, not rain. So imagine our delight when it rained! Of course, the downside, is that when we aren't used to rain, it makes a complete mess! Flooding, slick roads from the oil buildup, etc. But at least we woke up to clean(ish) air! Still smoky, but much better!

So Friday night movie night is the Princess Bride! Cult classic--it's the one movie I don't mind if people talk through (as long as they use the same words and timing of the film!) You don't get to make up your own soundtrack, but it is a favorite for silly quotes!

Looking forward to more rain!

You're right, that IS a great movie to quote right alongside! :)

And the rain was AWESOME! The air hasn't smelled so good in a month. I'm going for a run OUTSIDE today! Yeah!
