Driving Rain

We spent the day driving in the rain from our peaceful desert location to the Palm Springs Thousand Trails park in Palm Desert, CA. The rain started in the middle of the night and continued non stop throughout the day.


Doug set up the coach in the rain, unhooked the car in the rain and set up the tv in the rain. Even stepping outside on the patio is soggy.

But we are still lightyears ahead of our family and friends in the northwest. Snow, snow everywhere!


Our pal Al sent us this photo of the road near Stanwood, WA. No thank you!

And my daughter Bridgit called to let us know that she had been in a bad car accident in the snow in East Wenatchee. She was on her way to the school to pick up grandson Jacob who was sick and another car slid through a stop sign right in front of her. They were both spun in circles and Bridgit smashed into a light pole. Fortunately, both she and 5 year old Emma were buckled in tight and were fine. The other driver was taken to the hospital to be checked out. Poor Jacob was stuck at school for two more hours until his other Grandma could pick up him and Bridgit and Emma. The car is totalled but my babies are all safe.


Speaking of Jacob and Emma, I have to share their Christmas picture with you. Sure miss them.
