Rain Rain Go Away… It Did!

The forecast stated “rain all day”… We waited and nada… zip… zero!  Paul decided to go for a walk mid morning as the clouds did not look threatening!

Before the walk, we took pictures of the orchid plant that Jennifer McC gave us.  It is just beautiful!  Thank you Jennifer!

Our Orchids are blooming again!

Paul walked for an hour with no breathing problems.  A good thing.  The drainage ditches often gets full when we have heavy rains but this morning is was flowing nicely and all the leaves and dirt were gone to the sea!

The water was flowing clear

It had rained about 4:00 AM so the flowers were still wet.  When the sun came out between the clouds, the flowers were beautiful.

The red flowers were magnificent in the morning dew

One of Paul’s favorite yards was swamped with water! We needed today to dry out and soak up the standing water.

The ground was pretty well saturated

Sue did the treadmill and watched a movie before cleaning up and heading to Patty’s Place for a pre-dance nibble!  The “steak soup” is a weekly special and it was just wonderful!  Check fixed Paul a “hot toddy” and it seemed to work to get the cough under control!

With Paul’s cough, this came to mind

Off to the Phoenix Club where we danced in the Pavillion so thank goodness there was no rain!  Connor called us on the way and was home sick… He sounded horrible!

Lilly visited Disneyland!

We danced until the place closed and went home to watch TV before crashing.

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
