I guess we've been lucky this week so far. Another boneless blue morning in Philadelphia, with temp. about 62 F when I left home. Supposed to go into the low 80s F this afternoon.  :)

Grey and overcast today.The last 4 days it has rained non stop. I know I should be pleased as we have needed rain for months, but all this grey is depressing.It is not raining at the moment but looking at the sky I suspect that will change any time soon.
I am going to try and get some pictures of Annie, the swimming dog, as she has now discovered a new game, well 2 actually. When you walk her she plays lets roll over in as many storm drains as possible, isn't this fun mummy.
Her most recent discovery,is if she goes to the far side of the lanai, which is not under the roof, she can play slip and slide the whole length of the pool.
I thought it was a real hoot watching her yesterday, until she had a malfunction with her brakes and went crashing right through the lanai screen and of course was out the yard in a flash making a dash for freedom.
As she is part German shepherd, she was completely unharmed,but the panel will have to be replaced,again !!!

What on earth is happening in Florida? I think I heard on the news this morning that some places have had two feet of rain!  :o

Weather in the Rocky Mountains was as follows: heavy fog over the Continental Divide, overcast in Vail, hot on the Western Slope, dust storms in Monument Valley, and driving rain in Northern Arizona. Nevertheless, the praying Prius prevailed!! Gray and wet in Flagstaff this a.m.

Thanks for the weather report, Lee.  Looks like Mikaela and I lucked out on the timing of our Southwest trip.  Last week it was beautiful in all those places.  Here's the incredible view from our hotel room at Monument Valley:

Sure enough, Clarissa.  Yes, Monika, it was hot, but at least it wasn't humid. 8)

Here are some more from our trip:



This was a ceremony held at our hotel by and for Navajo veterans of the U.S. military.  It included Navajo chanting as well as the Star-Spangled Banner sung in Navajo.



Another view of Monument Valley taken during our sunset tour
