Well, after a year of counting down, we finally arrived - to the first named storm of the season. We were expecting thunderstorms, but we got Arthur. But, as Simon says, what storm? We spent 2 nights at the Radisson in BZE, waiting for the sun & watching the waves & rain out our hotel room window. We were planning on taking the 1:30 ferry today, but early this morning we figured we should go while the going was good, so we left on the 10:30. Lots of wind, but just waves of rain. It's still pretty windy, but rain seems to have stopped since Arthur has moved inland now. Hopefully we'll see some sun tomorrow - I'd love to put on my bathing suit & hop in the pool!

But, still beats workin'

Penny,

are you on the island? I see you posted under an hour ago and mention the rain has stopped. It has been pouring here where I am on the island all day very hard and still is. Where are you right now?

Why did you stay on the mainland two days in the raddison room? I was on the mainland on Thur and came back Thursday afternoon when it was still sunny and dry.

We went to bed to rain (not bad after 6 days of sunshine) and woke to more, heavy rain. At least the power was back on after the past few days of intermittent outages. Checked the internet and realized there was more going on than expected. The Weather Channel did its usual "the sky is falling" forecast, while we enjoyed a few hours napping and reading a good book.

Family called from home hoping we were OK handling the storm. We were fine, if napping counts.

Looks like we'll take the opportunity to work on our skills with some recado making our first attempt at grilled chicken with rice and beans!

ah, darn! At least power is still on unlike yesterday but now it's raining like baseballs and deep puddles you can't walk through and the tv says "searching for satellite signal. Please stand by" I think that means it's time for bed, but I am not tired!

Wish Cal's weather station was up and running. I'd love to see the rain totals for the last few days.
