Still ten more days until Peter is back again.


I will fill in for him. Here we go:


Usually I start the day with checking out the local weather and reading what is going on around the world. Today I didn't.
The day started nice and clear. Since I had nothing else to do I decided to clean the exterior of our motor-home. Dust made the surface dull and water run-off left ugly stripes on the surface.

Up and down the ladder I climbed, several buckets of water were used. After some hours the task was completed and I could see how my car was mirrored in the surface. Nice.


A friendly neighbour  came over for a chat: "Hey, I see you worked hard today. Do you know that there is rain in the forecast for tomorrow?"


"Nooooo. That cannot be true"!
Is it a case of "Murphy's Law"? Every time I clean the windows it is guaranteed to rain? Cannot be true. Every day there are many housewives cleaning windows worldwide, it would be raining constantly, or? 
Maybe it is just an unlucky coincident.
Next time I make sure to check on the weather first.

My Jeep mirrored - so clean!

How long will it last?

Bea - hoping the rain goes somewhere else.

Somebody gives us a pair of oars?

Blurred by torrential rain: Our Lakefront property

And there it was again, one of these typical torrential rainfalls happening out here from time to time. I had taken off to Algodones for the last session with Dottore. It had started raining before I got outside again, but it was nothing compared to what I met out on I-8. Vision ahead turned to zero and everything came to a crawl.

When I turned onto our BLM-LTVA-area I could have used a boat. Seriously, there was no land in sight. A huge lake filled the entire entry to the camp.

I made my way through it and proceeded through more lakes on the 1/2 mile up through camp.
Had to back up our car to the RV-door so I could jump out and reach inside as quickly as possible.
