Rain Delay

The weather man was forecasting the storm of the century coming our way today.  Guess what?  It didn't start raining until 3pm and then really started to pour around 5pm.  The wind picked up and it was blowing between 18-25 mph and was nasty out there.  It really isn't that bad except for the wind.

We decided early on this morning to wait another day to leave the campground.  It is better to stay off the highways in a MH when the weather is bad or possibly bad.  That is the nice thing about being retired and not having a fixed schedule you have to follow.  

Today was the day to say good bye to the kids.  Cassie, Jack & Lexa stopped by on their way back to Maryland and then we met Barbara for dinner at a Mexican restaurant near her work.  Later we stopped by and said goodbye to Larry Jr., Jane and Grant.  Saying goodbye is hard to do but they have their lives to lead and we have to do our thing.  We might see some of them out west next spring, but nothing is definite.  Cellphones and email keep us in daily contact with them, so that helps a lot.

Time to hit the hay for an early start.  Good night.
