Last night we had a pretty good storm pass over us and it left behind 2.92 inches of rain during the night. Thank God Peggy had recently climbed up onto the roof of the Barbarian Invader and identified and repaired all roof leaks. We hung out in the trailer, listening to the steady thumping of the rain on our fiberglass house while enjoying absolutely dry conditions. At times, the storm obscured the signals from our TV satellites which doesn’t happen very often.
My repugnant, turncoat body continues to vex my partially functioning brain by not healing itself in accordance with my wishes. My body is bad.
We did drive about some today, finding the spot where an errant tree took down the power lines to our campsite last night. We had ample battery power to make ourselves quite comfortable during last night’s fun. I’ve gotta hand it to the guys that made and inspected this trailer before we took possession. Everything inside works perfectly even though the outside decals are ugly. During our drive, we stopped by some spots where we had taken photos of the Russian River prior to the storm and we took some “after” shots. What was a calm, skinny waterway at the edges of portions of the riverbed before the storm is now completely obscured by the swollen river which runs fast, bank to bank.
