Speaking of weather (up the thread) our Indian summer appears to be over. We had very hot days right up until Saturday. Sunday we got some rain, and last night we got RAIN and WIND. There were public service announcement flood warnings this morning, and the wrecks on the freeway were everywear. People around here either don't know or forget that when it hasn't rained since April there is a lot of oil build-up on the freeways, and the rain makes them slick. Slow down? Gawd, we can't slow down! So when we have the first big rain of the season, the auto body shops do a booming business!
That is so funny but ridiculous! It's like that here; since we only get twelve inches of rain each year, max, and almost everyone is from someplace else, so knows his/her own set of driving rules. No one seems to be able to drive in the rain. I stay in when it rains if at all possible.
