Desert Rain

I live in a desert and love the hot, dry weather.  However, we do get monsoons twice a year.  July and August are our summer monsoon season.  This creates flash floods.  We've had a lot of rain this week, mostly during the night.  This is what greeted me this morning.

My poor little short legged dog stared at the water, wondering how to get to grass to do his business.

It has stopped raining and the water level is going down.  He finally got brave and waded through the water.  He discovered that he wouldn't melt.
