Arizona Storms

One of the things we love about being out here is the clear blue skies and fabulous year round weather. However, it seems that whenever we make plans lately, we encounter the summer monsoons. Yesterday we took a trip up to Prescott, AZ to bike ride in the Granite Dells -- we've been wanting to do this forever...and believe it or not, as we drove into the parking lot it began to rain. We went anyway and managed to miss the downpour, but the sky in our pics definitely looks ominous! People in Prescott are lucky, the Granite Dells is pretty spectacular. Especially with a rails to trails right through it:
