The wind. The rain. The additional work that comes with it.

So most have heard about the massive amounts of rain we’ve had lately the last week or so, and now, to top it off, wind. If not: http://www.komotv.com/news/4643576.html

It hasn’t been all that bad until yesterday. Downed tree’s taking the cable down with it, making it difficult for me to put ladders up to do my work, being soaked even though wearing a gortex suit, and then being cold from the wind itself.

No matter what way I parked my work van, the wind and rain HAD to blow in the direction I parked so when I opened the back doors to get tools and such, it all blew in. So gonna have some rusty tools come Sunday.

But the ground is so saturated here now, just walking on grass and such, you feel the ground sink beneath your feet. And its not even close to being done yet.

Weather service has said we will finish this month with an all time record for rainfall. Nov is generally our wettest month as it is, avg around 9 inches I believe. But so far, we’ve had 11.5 inches, and its only half way through the month.

Anyways. Gonna dry out and watch TV and play EVE.
