When there's nothing else to talk about, or complain about, there's always the weather. So that's my topic today! More on politics later!
WHY does it seem that almost every time I take a vacation, the weather turns south? We've had some extraordinary weekends this year. Of course those weekends were spent at home, doing home-type stuff. We did decide to take the same vacation we attempted last year, which was thwarted last year due to bad weather. In order to not have that happen again, we upped the weekend almost a month. Thought for sure we'd be out of the woods (or rather we were going to the woods! Hiking, etc.) Of course the weekdays before our departure date were wonderful, but there was a front coming in. I watched the weather forecast every day, and it never changed. And since we don't have the luxury of rescheduling our vacation, we altered our plans a bit, and made the most of it. Probably spent less money too. And of course, as soon as we got back, the weather changed for the good.
In 35 years or more together, not all our vacations have been rainy or cold, but when they are, you remember them, especially when they're almost back-to-back. There's always next year, but today the weather's back to normal and I'm back to doing home-type stuff, on Day 124!
