Down Time Days

It's a time when the weather considerations forced another day at home. The forecast was for a 50% chance of precipitation, and that translates to 100%. It did rain - .25 inches for the day. The long term forecast for the next seven days has isolated thunderstorms present with a 30-40 chance of rain each of those days. Wow! We certainly didn't get this much rain - at least in the forecasts - last year. It's good in a way since the wildfires are all around us and the rain sure helps the firefighters.

As a result of the poor weather yesterday, we spent most of our day in the fifth wheel, except for a short trip to the grocery store to pick up my prescription from our trip to Idaho Falls on Thursday when I visited the foot clinic. Everything was OK with the blood tests, so I got my prescription filled with no problem. The 90 day supply of pills cost only $4.74 - the least amount I can remember paying for any prescription. Let's hope the stuff works.

There are some things happening around town. To start with, they began a new phase in the road repairs and the downtown area is a mess trying to get around. There are detours on several streets, and that really makes it tough for the visitors to get in and out of town. The other event is an Art and Antique show that is running at our lodge. That started yesterday and runs through tomorrow. It's for sure that the lodge show will result in more lobby traffic and work for us.

We head back to work today for the final week in August. This month has gone especially fast and before we know it, it will be time to pack up and leave. We're hoping for some nice weather soon so we can get back outside and take advantage of the time we have left...
