Where’s Hilary?

Hurricane Hilary came to California, and all we got on the complex were puddles.

Though it rained almost all day yesterday/most of the night, sun is up today, outside has dried up already, there's just no sign of having been in the eye of a hurricane or one passing nearby.

Even our poorly paved driveway goes unbothered.

Looking at the news, it looks like the end of the world in some areas, but here it’s just another Monday after a summer storm.

Try as I did, I couldn’t find a puddle of water deep enough to justify calling off on this morning’s workout, to extend the weekend to three days.

Looks like all the worry and panic grocery shopping I witnessed at the market ..... water selling out as fast as store workers could bring pallets up from the back, was for naught.

Onward and upwards California.

    1. Little bit disappointed didn't get to experience something I never experienced before, but glad we didn't experience the mudslides and floods other areas did.

    1. I'm in the right place. Lots of serious stuff goes on in neighboring counties, but passes us by ... thus far.
