Rainy Sunday

Senior got packed up and back on the road again to check on his dad in SC. His Dad has got another blockage in his stomach and the VA elected to transfer him to a civilian medical center. I think after a month of him being there, they wanted him out.
 We got the call at 5am Saturday morning that he was being transferred. Senior was elated with the news, because it is actually what we were hoping for.
 This time, he packed up our camper and moving it up there to a campground. The cost of hotels is starting to put us in the red.
So after much discussion, we knew this to be the best option for these weekly trips.

After he left this morning, rain moved in. A nice little low pressure system has set up and giving the region a shower. So, when it rains I get out and wash the car. I know you all must think me crazy, and so do probably most of my neighbors. But, really do I care? 
It was Senior who got me started in the practice of washing a car in the rain, why you ask? Because silly, you don't have to dry it. And isn't that the worst part of the job, the drying?  actually I think the worse part is vacuuming it out and waxing.

ND and a much better NW donned rain coats and got in on it too. Its a warm spring day, and the cool water felt good.  They miss their dad so very much , so being silly and playing outside in the rain was a good way for them to take their mind off the fact  that he was gone again.

We have a complete weekend in May where there are no baseball games, so we are taking them up to the SC campground to visit Grandpaw in the hospital and get a little camping in before it gets too hot. 

So now the rain is coming down harder. I hope it last all night.....
