Sign of the Monsoon
The New Mexico summer monsoon is beginning to roll up some towering afternoon clouds. Actually there have been great thunderstorms over the Sangre de Cristos back of Santa Fe and over the Jemez, some of which have floated down to Albuquerque by evening - we've had about a quarter of an inch of rain this weekend.

Marolynn returned from Utah yesterday to spend the few days before the big cruise getting ready for the trip and cleaning up the place. The new County fiscal year (2009) started today and I installed the new budget on the mainframe computer in time for everyone to start financial transactions against it. Jon, Mom, and I all went out this evening to see the new Pixar movie, "Wall-E" which was just great - I recommend it for anyone who can get to it. It's nice to see that G-rated movies can still bring big crowds to the theaters.
