Boulder City Rainstorms

When it rains in Boulder City it pours. I think they got their years worth of rain in about 2 hours. Seriously. On Friday my mom and I ran to town for a few more items for the BBQ with her twin sister on the 4th and we also wanted to see if the silky fabric was on sale because I only had enough silky for one blanket instead of two :) On our way home about Railroad Pass (it's the last casino before Boulder City--no gambling in Boulder) it was raining so hard you could barely see. My the time we got to the 2nd stop light in town (there are only 3) there was hail coming down the size of small marshmellows. I'm seriously surprised my mom's windshield didn't break. Then, by the time we go to their housing development you couldn't even see the sidewalks. The picture of the water above is on a very STEEP hill and you can see the water was almost up to the sidewalk. It was over the sidewalk on the other side and was a RIVER it was crazy. Thank heavens it let up enough for us to get out of the car with the new babies :)
