Downpour in Hermosa!!!

It rained last night - I mean RAINED!!!
I woke up and thought it was just the wind because the wind blows here like it does in Wyoming... and then there was no pause in the sound - so I even thought, 'is it raining?' I looked out the window and you could tell that it was indeed raining!!!
I must explain - it is the dry season here in Costa Rica, especially here in the Guanacaste area. Dry like Wyoming. They still burn their garbage and ground cover to clean up the yard and Dave and I talked a lot about the fires getting out of control and how it seems it could just run wild across the hillside. So, when I heard rain last night, I was amazed! It was about 2:30 am and I just couldn't get back to sleep so I came out to play on the computer - I even blogged it all and then the power was flashing on and off and eventually went off for good.
It was so dark!!!
So anyway - no fun picture to go with this blog - just wanted to share the events of the night!!!
