When last I left off we had decided to hang at our Coupeville location through Sunday to avoid driving in the wind and rain, which was the forecast. To be fair, it did rain Saturday, and there was wind on occasion, but nothing approaching the actual forecast for our area. Nonetheless, all things being equal we're glad we stayed put. However, I am thinking of discarding the two weather services I use (Weather.com and NOAA) and employing something similar to John's Weather Forecasting Stone (see below). I can't imagine how this method of forecasting the weather would be any less accurate than my current sources......
.....seriously, though, we do rely heavily on the recognized weather forecasting agencies whether we are stationary, or on the move......it is just that sometimes their guess at what to expect is so inaccurate that it brings a smile to my mouth.
Since we had planned to remain stationary, and out of the weather I spent most of the day watching college football, some baseball and some soccer. My Dodgers managed to come from behind to down the NY Mets 5-2 with some timely hitting. The U.S. National Soccer team lost in overtime to Mexico 3-2 in the Rose Bowl.....we did not play well, and appeared to be on defense about 80% of the time.
After living the past almost 6 weeks along the Pacific Coastline it will seem weird to wake up Monday morning hundreds of miles inland from the ocean, but the adventure must continue.......thanks for stopping by!
