In the Rain
We are still in Southern California. When I grew up here (many years ago), Southern California was known for little rain. Now, it almost has the opposite reputation. We have received over 3.5 inches in the last 4 days. Not nearly as much as when we were in Lytle Creek in early January, but enough. It makes Reggies days a bit boring. Laying outside is one of his daily treats. When we take that away from him, he is visibily depressed. I guess kinda like a kid who can't go outside to play. Donna and I manage to take him out for a walk several times a day, rain or not.
There's a nice view of the LA Basin from this RV park in Oak Glen, CA. That's when its not raining. Oak Glen is known for its fall apple harvest. Lots of little shops for tourists to spend money on. Yesterday we went to Law's Restaurant right across the street and had a hearty breakfast. Best was the Hot Apple Cider. It tasted like drinking a fresh apple. (They have their own apple press on the premises.) The park here is OK, but a little run down. It's nice in that it's out of the mess in LA, above the Smog (at 4500 feet) but only about 8 miles down the hill to civilization in Yucaipa, or 12 miles to Redlands.
I haven't been working the last week. That's a welcome relief to the several months of work. I'm a little worried about future work possibilities, but worry begets actions.
We are planning our trips East now. We learned that the time we wanted to visit Big Bend National Park was the busiest of the year due to the SPRING BREAK phenomenon, so we are delaying our arrival there to see if we can miss it. We are still aiming to be in North Carolina in Mid-April. I'm hoping to go to the MerleFest (acoustic music festival) at the end of April.
As was apparent, nothing much important to say, but this blog is nice to help me remember what went on in the past. (I need such aids these days.)
Same things in the news. More death and destruction in the mid-east and our participation continues. Not much I can do about it. I have heartfelt sorrow for those that have lost their sons and daughters over there, for not much return to us.
