Rain is coming...

[URL=https://imageshack.com/i/exKz18qfp][IMG][/IMG][/URL]

Actually, it's already here in the North Bay. Supposed to be the heaviest storm for our area in five years. Expecting as much as 12" in the higher elevations in Napa and Sonoma counties over the next 36 hours, with 3-5" at our elevation (sea level).

Any DUer's in the affected areas of California: stay safe, and we'll see you on the other side.

People would do well to run out and buy an inverter they can use to run appliances.

I got through a two-day blackout with one.

but it's not supposed to be as bad here. Some possibility of rain tomorrow, more on Friday, but then clear on Saturday.

I'm happy to see CA get some rain, even if it means we have to stay in.

I wore one of those for a long time, from a bone spur foot surgery in 2012. My left foot with the same left knee that I had a acl done in 1995. I had a torn meniscus later in the same year of 2012 on same left knee. Only to be told, I'll need a knee replacement some time in the future.



Heal fast my dear friend.
