It is said that there is usually a mid-dry-season rain that arrives "after the mahogany tree blooms". The blossoms had been seen, but the sun blazed on. Yesterday, in a sudden turn of the weather, the rain came!! Hours of off-and-on liquid coolness decended last night. Clouds are keeping it cool today. We are happy for a little break from the heat.
An interesting aside about mahogany trees is that their fruit is a hard, woody ball that bursts opens, spraying it's seeds. Once it opens it looks like a wooden flower---beautiful!
