There are a series of storms hitting California and the remainder has come our way! We woke to a beautiful sunshiny morning, then the clouds started moving in this afternoon and we had a few brief showers. But now it has settled in to rain, along with some pretty strong wind gusts. We read at one of the museum/parks we were at that the average rainfall in this area is about 11 inches per year. At our ranch in eastern Washington, we only get 7-9! I guess one of the differences is that rain here often comes quite heavily and most runs off...
We checked with the folks over at Quartzite as Tom and Juni called from Phoenix saying it was pouring there! Paul said they'd had a few showers at Quartzite, but the ground was pretty solid (it's mostly rock). He said they had over fifty coaches there already and that many more should come in tomorrow.
We'll shower in the morning, then pack up Auntie Violet and head for the rally.
