Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head

Navarre Florida

Day 51

Well, today was about as lousy as it can get. 

Woke up to grey skies...that was the BEST the weather had to offer.  Soon it began to storm, serious rain.  The nasty stuff was slightly to the west of us, in areas we drove on the beach and a little north of there where we had lunch.  Ferocious lightning, and six inches of rain there, we had little lightning but at least two inches of rain...it rained hard ALL day long.


Why do dogs think shoes make great pillows?

Nothing is worse than being at the beach and watching it pour.  Stayed holed up in the RV all day. We got a little 'cabin feverish', thankfully this place has good cable  It's also a good thing that we have TWO TV's in the RV...could have gotten ugly if not.  I watched a couple of hours of  'Hoarders' and Jim had his NASCAR.   It was raining so hard that we didn't even want to venture out to a mall or movie theater, which are all over 15 miles away.  So the laundry  got done, a dog got a bath and the RV got a good cleaning.  Not every day is a holiday.


Just before sunset the rain stopped, but still heavy clouds


Our timing certainly has been off on this trip.  Apparently, the weather had been quite nice here...until we showed up.  We were hoping for at least ONE good beach day before we go home, it was not to be. Tomorrow may be showery too.  We are heading east, hoping to make the Orlando area, but I just looked at a forecast and the local weather map had Florida covered in raindrops.  Why am I NOT surprised?

Ya know....we might be home sooner than we thought.
