Rain in the desert

June was a very wet month for us. Several houses on our street had their basement flooded. At the top of the hill in the desert you would think we wouldn't have to worry about this, but with the sheer about of rain we had this month coupled with a VERY rainy night we woke up to about 2 inches of water on the family room floor. Thank goodness for linoleum, and the fact the kids were sleeping at the other end of the room.
