May 10th turned out to be an unusual day. The first thing that was unusual about it was that after 3 days of high winds and extreme dust storms, it started to RAIN! It was the first time in over a year that it rained. It felt so strange to see the clouds, smell the fresh scent, and feel the rainy humidity. It almost felt like we had been somehow transported to another country. The second thing that was unusual was that Elisha and I spent the evening alone. Just the two of us. We celebrated her birthday by going to the Holiday Inn for the seafood buffet. The food was great, and so was the peacefulness.
