Change in the Weather

Holey Mackerel! The storm that hit southern California arrived last night and our blue skies disappeared. About bedtime, we heard the pitter pat of raindrops on the roof and then a downpour. For a minute I thought we were back in Seattle.

We woke to gray, cloudy skies and wild winds whipping at our outdoor carpet. Doug has it staked down but he made a trip farther into the desert to gather big rocks as anchors.

Several more Alpines arrived today and Doug had fun helping people get parked and making new friends. We are going to have fun in spite of this weather. There's some really hilarious people in this group.


One of Doug's favorite people set up his own power post along with sewer and water. It sure turns people's heads when they see that out here in the middle of nowhere. Doug can hardly wait to make one of his own.

Tonight, we found out several of the southern California people will not be able to make it to this rally. The storm has caused flooding problems all over the area. It's really too bad after all of the beautiful weather we've had for it to change this week.

Maybe tomorrow will be better.......tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya tomorrow, you're only a day away. (Thanks Annie)
