Nasty Day Weather Wise

Yesterday started out cloudy like it was going to rain and, sure enough, it rained and got colder the rest of the day. We stayed home except for a brief trip to Walmart to pick up a couple prescriptions for Josie. Yesterday also gave us an opportunity to catch up on movies we have recorded. We watched a very touching movie called "The Long Gray Line" that I recorded on May 5th of last year - before we even started on our adventure - that was 2 1/2 hours long. It was a movie about an Irish immigrant named Marty Maher, and the 50 years service he gave to the Military Academy at West Point. There's nothing like watching a tear jerker on a wet and dreary day. It is always easier to take the rain when it is warm outside but yesterday it was bordering on snow weather. Actually, it went down to 29 last night so if it hadn't stopped raining, it would have been snow.

Today is our last play day for the next 6 days. The sun is shining so we hope to go somewhere different. One place we have been looking at is "Railtown 1897 Historic State Park", where there is a train roundhouse and a museum of the old railroad that was used in many movies. It is located in Jamestown which is only about 10 miles south of us. We hope to get some good pictures that we can share tomorrow. Until then...
