I don't expect any sympathy, nor am I looking for any.
Gray skies and drizzle - sounds like a typical western Washington day - only I'm in "the valley of the sun".
The ground is baked so hard by the sun that the bit of water that falls cannot penetrate the earth's crust. Gathering rivulets turn in to rivers running down the streets of the park and collect in a dry basin that becomes a lake.
During my travels I scoff at those dry washes that are labeled as "rivers". In periods of heavy rain they become rivers, if only for a short time.
I just checked to ensure that my roof repair is holding, all of the wet weather seems to be staying outside.
When it rains, I lose the largest "room" I have and the five steps from one end of the Minnie Winnie to the other seem to get smaller.
I talked to Mom and learned that 32 members of the family gathered at her home on Sunday. I'm glad so many braved the weather and joined in. I miss you all.
Speaking of family, sister Chris is now on-line, it's nice to be able to exchange notes with her. Now if we could just get Pam to join in...

Stop, stop, no more, you're breaking our hearts. Quick call 911/999/111 or whatever the correct number is. Get a medic for us quick. Just a little liquid sunshine. You should be out doing a Gene Kelley song and dance routine. Have the neighbors take video and put it online.
Time for the $2 margaritas!! Come on up and experience 5 degrees!!
It was 26degrees in East Bremerton this morning and has warmed up to 33 this afternoon. Not suppose to get above freezing for a week or so. May snow(again) tonight and maybe saturday. Would you prefer this weather? :-)
Rob said: Your RV is one of Steve's stops on our ride this next summer! You think it seems small now......!
We plan on stopping, too, but definitely not in the summer down there! Maybe February; we'll bring our own sleeping quarters!!
Hey Mary, the summer stop Rob is talking about is as part of our annual motorcycle ride. This year we are riding around Idaho and eastern Montana (I think). Our state rides are usually at the end of July.
