A Rare Day

It rained in Phoenix yesterday. First rain in a long time; I can't remember the last rainfall. It was an all day rain, not hard, just steady light showers all day and into the evening. Skies were dark. The day was a refreshing change from the constant light. This morning was misty before sunup. Misty mornings are rare in this city and, like the rain, a welcome change. The mist softens the landscape, adding charm and mystery to what is normally just boring and obvious.

Phoenix could use more rain. Not just for the water.
