Monday, July 18/2011

It is cloudy today and I think there is rain in the forecast.  The weekend was hot and the kids could not have asked for better weather.  So, I guess it is okay if it rains today.
Actually, I watered the garden a bit yesterday as it was getting pretty dry again after that intense heat on the weekend so, I say, let it rain!!
Jace has to head back to Saskatoon today so we will be expecting him to stop by before he heads back.  Kim, Scott and Jill will be spending a few more days out at the lake then they too will be heading back to Saskatoon.  Kim has to race next weekend so her holidays ends at the racetrack.
Jace showed up around supper time and looked pretty darn tired.  When these kids spend a weekend at the lake it is anything but relaxing.  They have a 48 hour party!!  Now he has to go home to rest!!  Thank Heavens for work!!
As the evening progressed, the weather became more foreboding.  The skies looked down right ugly and there has been tornado warning out for most of the evening.  The wind did come up and started buffeting the bus pretty good so we headed out to roll up the awning.  It is better to be safe than sorry as those darn awnings are not cheap if one has to replace it.  We got back in just as the rain started falling.  Great,  now we have wind and rain.  What a great lightening show though!!  It wasn't too long before the power went out and aren't we lucky that we can just switch over to the batteries and still watch TV while the rest of the town sits in the dark!!  Life is Grand!!
We fell asleep with the sound of rain on the roof and I knew my garden would be smiling!!
