Rainy in the desert? Yes it was . But will keep the dust down and hopefully be done for a while now.

     Overcast and rainy over night. And still raining this morning at 5 am 52F outside and the sound of the rain on the roof is so soothing. Needless to say no walkabout this morning. Lots of huge water puddles a bit muddy in places and rivers running through the desert and some of the washes are starting to fill up. Hey the dusty roads aren't dusty they are pretty muddy right now.

we have a river right beside us

the small washes have water as well

    This be us here all 5 rv's  close but not to close. We are all good friends.

          Stopped by the Reader's Oasis and found out that Paul Winer the naked book store guy is selling out all his books and now has created a Music Hall and he has some shows coming in the near future.

         So because I could I took an early drive around the area and into town just to check things out. Interesting to see the desert with all this rain. Not the first time it is usually pretty dry here in the winter. No visible sunrise this morning in fact with the rain and clouds visibility maybe 1/4 mile I think, sure can't see the mountains all around us. Back home a bit more computing and enjoying our e-readers inside of course. Still raining too cool and damp outside to enjoy it even under our awning.
    Soon time for a light lunch and then another quick drive to town to refill your 5 gallon water jug with reverse osmosis water, $1:25 for 5 gallons. This drive up 95 into town I passed through one wash across the road had maybe 6 inches of water in it sure sprayed all the vehicles going through it.
     Here we are with our good friends 5 couples 10 people and three of them are also bloggers (plus us) Tom and Deb (Celebrating the Dance),  Bill and Patsy . Here we are waiting for the rain to stop, and enjoy some time outside in the wonderful desert we all love. And of these people 4 of us couples are from Rock Glen Resort in Ontario. again a small world.

wonderful views this afternoon of the clouds in the mountains 

our dusty road is not  dusty for a while right now

    These afternoon skies are sure amazing, nit a great day to be outside with the rain and mud so we got some inside things taken care of . we can be productive whatever the weather.

          Supper tonight going to make a spaghetti squash, with tomato sauce and some of our leftover turkey, nice and light no carbs, but now to spoil that I made some garlic bread with cheese  (hot dog buns). This was tasty and really hit the spot. I like to use the microwave too cook the spaghetti squash, and was a prefect day to it. With not much sun to charge our batteries, the genny with help charge them up at the same time.

A very tasty supper we both enjoyed

      After supper outside as we were getting a bit of a sunset , finally, Chatted with our friends for a bit. We were all outside because the sun was shining. First time we all hit base today. Said hi to everyone and as it quickly cooled down we all headed back inside .

    That was it for our desert day. Lotsa rain a bit cooler, and a bit muddy. But we did get inside things taken care of and looking forward to some nicer warm desert days soon with no rain. Sure is better than the snow they are getting back home!
    Now thanks again for stopping on by.
