WET WEDNESDAY

It may surprise those of you who think all of Arizona is a hot, dry desert.

But we do occasionally get rain here.

Today is one of those days.


Glassford Hill has disappeared into the low-lying rain cloud.

And my poor car is forced to sit outside while the garage fills for Judy's sale.



Do those look like tears to you?

But there is joy connected to a rainy day for someone.

You guessed it.

When I opened the garage door Matty, our rental cat, came hurrying in.

And after his snack and some water he got CATNIP!

Some cats eat it, some get stoned and sit with a glassy stare.

But Matty rolls in it.




Obviously too fast for my camera to catch him without the flash.

After totally absorbing all of the herbal thrills he settles down in his accustomed place on the couch.


Now, he says, it's time for my nap.


There's nothing like a rainy day if you've got friends who will let you into their house.

A little catnip and a warm place to nap - what could be better on a rainy day!?!

We are having rain now, for about 2 days. It is time for me to grab that cup of coffee, turn on the fireplace, and watch Hallmark movies.

Midnight, my childhood cat, rolled in catnip as well. Eleanor prefers to eat it. Moby and Zeppo thought it sorta smelled nice, but never got the attraction.

I hope we get your leftover rain, the air needs a good wash here.

I wouldn't mind a "Rent-a-cat"!

He was having a catniption, moving too fast for the camera.

It is definitely rainy season here in the west. Your friend Matty thinks you are the best neighbors ever!

You made that cat's day!

I love it! You've created a home away from home for lovable Matty.
