Show Notes

This is a rambling episode about the summer monsoon in the borderlands of southeastern Arizona. I know that I’ve rambled on like this for many years when it comes to summer monsoon and its affects on our desert plants and I think I could have kept jabbering for several more minutes about cool plants found in the rocky terrain of the Mule Mountains. Luckily for you I stopped, but wow, monsoon moisture is magical in the Mules!
