Being retired allows you to pick and choose the activity, as well as the day.
The crux of this is . . . we avoid weekends and holidays, regardless of how nice the weather.
Not to begrudge the wage slaves their Memorial Day weekend, but as the campsites started to clear, the dark clouds rolled in.
Tuesday arrived blustery and gray, so by midweek the storm clouds had bunched up overhead and the rain moved in. This dampened our plans. But being resilient, we shifted to more home oriented projects and waited for the inevitable sun’s return.
Last week’s trip to Portland netted us a stack of light fixtures and accent pieces for our ongoing house update. Sooo . . . we spent some of those rainy days installing stuff.
Evening thunderstorms roll through, usually moving north or west along the eastern side of the Cascades. The sky opens up and for a few hours there is sunshine.
Summerlike weather is returning to the forecast next week, so we’re planning accordingly.
For now, we keep working through our house projects.
