Possible frost here this week, too.  Figures, I just planted my sweet potatoes today.

Good Grief, Saturday afternoon and here comes another wave of rain. then Wx man said possible thunderstorms tonight, then a possibility of a frost Tuesday evening. I need to get my good old 17 foot Champion bass boat out, mount the pod on top of the boat then come rain or shine we will be going. this is crazy. May 11 and we have not had a weekend where the weather will allow even a 1 nighter, unless you want to set inside. I can do that at home. I betcha the weather will get nice just in time to go back to work on Monday. I am going to throw a fit and get some possum heads, chicken bones, eye of newt, bat wings, and anything else I can find and throw an evil spell on the weather in Southern Indiana. With my luck it will clear up just in time to get on the road and get into a tornado.

This has been a weird spring. Hot, cold, hot, cold and rain. Lots of rain.   Hopefully you'll get your first trip in a week or two.

Well every thing was ready for a Two nighter, Pod ready, fridge on. all we had to do was load clothes and food, then BLAM 2 low pressure areas sweep the Ohio valley area, rain, maybe hail storms tonight, tomorrow, but of course weather clears and is going to be beautiful just in time to go back to work. Spring Weather is a fickle B###H. First trip out cancelled.

We had our first trip of the year, and our first trip ever, since getting our pod in December. We drove from Tacoma, WA to just north of Port Townsend and stayed at Fort Worden State Park. They have nice campgrounds both near the beach and also a wooded area. We had great weather (mostly sunny and about 55 degrees). It is a wonderful, historic park, located on the northeast tip of the Olympic Peninsula with lots of areas to hike and great things to see. If you travel to Washington State, check it out.

Yup, that definitely would have stunk up the weekend.
