      Not to wish any one any bad weather, but if it is raining out there, it seems to keep Allen quiet about how nice Ca. weather is. I have not heard him brag about the weather for a week or two now.

      Well there is some Blue sky here in Sonoma and it hasn't rained for a few hours. Although it looks like that might change pretty soon......

      It might be raining here, but at least it's 56*. I'm not complaining though. I like the rain. Just not when I want to work on my car.

      See? Even the rain here is nice. And dammit, why can't I have lightning down here?

      Actually, it didn't rain all day where I was. it only started raining around 4pm. Got a full day in.

      And Bill, that's only because we really haven't spoken in that couple weeks.

      I have been amazed at how dry it's been here in S.W. Washington! Unbelievable! However, it freezes every night. You folks in S. Cal. are getting what we get up here for months on end, though I think you are getting it in larger quantities. Unfortunately, it has been dry all week and rainy on the weekend. This one is supposed to be dry, finally. The day is coming when I will move south. Way south. Hot and dry south.

      Yeah its weird, its like Cali traded climates with Wash...I think its nice cause this might mean we will have a dry March...for once. We need the rain. Our water shed it 160% of normal. At least thats what the weather speculaters said.
