Rock 'n Rolla........Goes The M/H...........

as the rain continues and wind gusts keep increasing. Not a day to be out and about although I'd like to take a peek at Fortuna Wash.........a big wash just a couple of miles away. Flash flood warnings in Yuma until late this afternoon. I've always said that I'd like to see what a flash flood looks like; but, better judgment (that occurs sometimes) tells us to just stay home.

And, it's going to continue until Saturday if you can believe the weather forecast. Rain should start to subside tomorrow..........hopefully. Fortunately the internet signal and TV are still working......Becky just tossed together a big pot of mulligan stew and it's pretty darn good so we'll just hang out until the weather improves while feeding our faces. Life is still good.

Looked at a big old 34 foot Winnebago with 3 slides yesterday, 2008 model and managed to drool all over it; but, price, somewhat reduced, is still too high. Should have gone back in today and tried to bargin.............you know what they say........buy a new car in a snow storm and you get the best deal. The wind and rain is sorta like a snow storm in this area. Oh well, haven't got any leaks (yet) so guess this old rig will hold together for a few more miles.

Big event starting in Ocotillo next Friday and so far a bunch of Yuma cachers are heading over that way...........that is if the rain ever stops. At last count about two dozen of us are going over so should be lots of fun for a long weekend. It's only about 110 miles so maybe some more might come over just on Saturday to join the festivities.

Well, the stew pot is calling my name..........at the rate I'm consuming it Becky may have to start another batch. One good thing about the rain..........it's warm (kinda) and you don't have to shovel it. Later. W&B
