I have heard this question a few times and yes, it does rain in Arizona. Not very often, but we do occasionally get some moisture.
Last week we got more than a little . . . it poured! I got home from work just before it hit. The sky was black and the wind had picked up a little. Luckily we did not have the dust storm that usually comes with the rain and it was really pretty nice. It rained all through dinner and afterwards I announced that I was going outside to play in it and did anyone want to join me? Doug and Brent just looked at me like I was crazy (which I am) and I did not get any offers.
So I changed clothes and ran outside to play in the gutter and have fun. It was freezing. I slipped around and as neighbors drove by (pointing & laughing) I continued splashing around. I'm sure it looked weird, but I know they all really wanted to stop their cars and join me.
Here I am wet & cold!

WOOOOO HOOOO!!!!
Glad you have the spirit to do whatever you want to do. One of the reasons I love you so much! Hyrum would have joined you...he loves the rain and thinks we should all be out there playing in it.
How fun! I was out in the rain on Sunday. A micro-burst hit over our house and it poured for a good 20 minutes. Bridgette and I walked around in it, under an umbrella. I love the rain!!! There is nothing better than hearing that on the roof/windows and that smell. Love it!
Good for you! I would have played in the rain! Why grow up!
It's raining here in Southern Utah! My freshman son, Dakota was out doing football practice with his team in the rain today. I kept thinking, "He'll run to this car if he gets too wet and tired!" Nope- he just got mad that I was watching :)
