I had read that the monsoon rains in northern Arizona have been heavy for the last two weeks or so. Something like this was bound to happen.

Oh yes...It’s been a while since we’ve seen such a wet and long running monsoon season. It happens ever so many years.

Tonight was the third night we have had extremely heavy rain-fall here in Sedona. My porch has flooded every night, and every single towel I had available, was used to soak up the water.

Tonight, I thought I was smart, putting duct tape on the inside and outside of the door, before the rains came, (where the water comes running through) - but this evening, it was thundering and lightening almost simultaneously as I was taping up the door - you guessed it - I’m a chicken. I ran inside - and left one area of the door un-taped. Result? More flooding on my porch. Dang!
