When I went to the supermarket, I snapped this picture of the parking lot because it looked so different from usual. The pavement was dark, shiny and wet, and clouds hung above the mountains.
Zooming in on the mountains, I noticed a little sprinkling of snow!
Back home again, I found a puddle on the front sidewalk:
And in the backyard, some rain had soaked into the wood of the compost bin.
Droplets of water decorated plants. It was still not enough rain to make the creek start flowing yet, but maybe when the snow in the mountains melts. Thanks for visiting and sharing in my excitement of rain in the desert.

The way you feel about the rain is the way I long for sun light here in Michigan..
I can read your excitement, Diane, and you did take the camera with you, did you take any pictures inside the market? :-)

Wow! aren't we just so thankful of that rain, it brought forth beauty and refreshing drink for the plants!
Welcome to Watery Wednesday, glad that you are on board!
How I love those days in Arizona and dislike them in Indiana (because we have so many)! I'd gladly send you the rain we've had all day today. That is such a beautiful clearing sky in the first photo. Love the colors in the leaf mosaic, too.
It's like a special gift when it rains in the desert.
We only got a little rain last Sunday night. I didn't even see wet ground in the morning.
Nice shots for your first watery wednesday.
It's so interesting to know about different places and different people all around the world. Your place makes me eager to know more.

I can share your excitement. When the first rains come over here you can smell the difference in the air. I love it.
Nice rain shots. When the rain comes occasionally it becomes special. The photo with colorful leaves look beautiful. In the first one, the clouds seem to be coming out of the mountain.
Rain rain won't go away, rain is coming.
