It was just a drop....

Wednesday, April 9, 2008

I woke to cool temps and an overcast morning. I figured it was a good time to test out my new California Duster, gotta love a black car in Arizona...especially with a construction site just behind my site. As I was starting out the mobile RV tech arrived and proceeded to get out his gear. Suddenly I noticed a couple of raindrops on the hood of my car. Hmmmm, I didn't think rain was in the forecast. Then it stopped...

He went to work on the first task, adding an Extend-a-Stay valve to my propane connections. This will allow me to use an external tank for emergencies and will also let me run an external propane device directly from the main tank. It was pretty brisk, so after moving my chairs & side table out of his way, I went back inside.

Hmmm, is that raindrops? I go out and sure enough...it's raining enough to see the spots. Lasted a couple of minutes and then, of course, the sun broke through.



Next he tackled my rear brakes...yup, going to need them done. I had heard squealing from the rear right and figured that was coming. But as soon as he had it off and we discussed his coming back the next day...due to iffy weather and needing to get parts, the sky decided to let loose. The wind picked up and it started to rain hard enough that I had to close the door and put up the small window awning.



So, it may never "...rain in southern California" but it sure can here in southern Arizona!

Till next time - keep on rollin',

  1. Arizona has monsoon rains but usually not until August. The weather this year has sure been weird. I am now sitting in our sunroom with the laptop PC connecting to our system through WiFi. The inside temp is in the mid 70s and the sun is currently shining between clouds. I am so ready for spring! Have a new (to me) CD by The Seekers (remember "Georgie Girl?") and am about to head to the living room to watch the news on TV. I guess that even with the cool weather, life is good.

  2. I should have commented on the post with your new outdoor frog. It's precious! It appears that, like me, it has to have personality for a frog to appeal to you.

    I'm thoroughly enjoying all of your blogs. You have a way of saying things that put us right there, right then. Thanks!
