Back in SF!!

Gentle Readers and Dear Friends I got back into SF around 11pm Saturday night and used yesterday to do laundry and just watch movies...  It was a nice trip home - but I always forget how oppressively humid Florida can be!!  Flying overnight and arriving Monday morning to bright sunny weather in the upper 80's was quite a shock, but Monday was the only bright sunny day.  There were rain storms the rest of the week and Saturday afternoon I flew out in the middle of a huge downpour - I enjoy the rain and it did keep the temps out of the 90's and in the low 80's - so that was a mercy.

Here is a quick snap.....


Taken from the Pier at Daytona Beach looking north.  This is pretty much how the sky looked all week - With there being so many years of light rains in the area and the ongoing drought - every drop that fell was needed.  Hopefully the rains will keep down all the fires that ravage the forests in the western part of Volusia County during the Fall.

I have quite a bit more to share, but I am still catching up up on emails so I'll cut it short today.  
Thanks fro stopping by, do stop again!!

Take care,
edgar

  2. Take the rain as a blessing from the heat/humidity. We were there is May and I could barely stand it then.

    My DH is in Miami now....and told me that if I thought it was humid here in SE TX (near the Gulf) that it's way more humid in Miami.
