It seems like it has been raining all spring here in Denver. May was the 4th wettest May on record here in the Mile High City, and so far this has been the wettest June since 1965. In other words, through some cosmic mistake we have been getting weather that was meant for Seattle. This in a city that has been suffering drought conditions for the past 40 years or so. However, the weather forecasters say that this stormy pattern will change by the weekend, and we will return to our typical hot and dry conditions. I certainly hope so. My cousin John and his wife Barb lived in Seattle for many years, but after suffering through 365 straight days of rain, they sold their house and moved to Tucson. Talk about drastic. But if it winds up raining 365 days straight here in Denver, I might just be crazy enough to move to Tucson too. I think that would be what these days is called a "psychiatric emergency." And yes, that is indeed the University of Denver's Ritchie Center, located across the street from my condo, being threatened by lightning in the above photo. Perhaps the University of Denver is being threatened by God himself. As a former DU employee, it makes sense to me.
