It rained again here in the San Francisco Bay Area!

I am hoping we will have another wet Winter this year. Last Winter wasn't cold, but it was quite rainy, reminiscent of 20 or so years ago here. We had some more rain the night before last, not a deluge, but enough to keep the ground moist. I believe we have had fewer wildfires this Fall than we had grown used to over the past several years. It's sunny and cool, but not cold, here today. I just went to the grocery store in shorts, flip flops, and a heavy LL Bean flannel shirt, an odd fashion statement, I am sure, but I don't care. I'll attach a sunny day photo of the Bay Bridge, which I passed over the other day on my way to visit my brother in "The City." How is the weather where you are? What are you "hoping for"?

We're at 57F and storming right now. The forecast says we might reach 61F by this afternoon but I'm kind of doubting it will get there today. I hope you've been enjoying your morning, pony.

Did you make it to the 60s yesterday? I see wet pavement here, but it does not feel cold.

I wish we would get some more rain here before it cools down and the snow hits. My grandson goes outside in just his shorts most days even now. Maybe he will put his shoes on. Kids nowadays

Heh. Kids have more important things to worry about than the weather.

It's still raining here. But I don't mind it a bit.

It sounds like true Bay Area winter fashion. Do you think we'll get snow again? That would be nice. The only part that I disliked about the rain last winter was that my backyard got too soggy and I slipped while walking through it and missed several weeks of work with a bad sprain.

I can bring you one of my custom Back Yard Walking Sticks. When Mike and I get bored, we make walking sticks from his live oak shade tree. They're really strong!

That's a great photo. The weather has turned cold. It was in the 60s; and now it's in the 30s and 40s. I was hoping this Indian Summer would continue longer. Hope you have a great weekend.
