Rima and all,
Count your blessings! We in Colorado have had little rain this summer, but
this week everything changed. I'm sure you saw the reports of what happened
in Fort Collins. What few people understand outside the region is that this
is a fairly DRY place and the creek that caused the damage is really
usually no more than a little dribble!! Fortunately I live in southern
Colorado and have had a little rain, but not the 11 inches that Ft. Collins
had on Monday evening!
Maybe we got all that New York rain! ;)
