A LITTLE RAIN MUST FALL



It started raining this morning at about 5:30 so I figured it was a good time to wake up Kathe and go for a little walk.  She put a hoodie over her head, but I could tell she wasn't smiling.  We didn't get too wet and muddy, nothing a little dip in the kitchen sink wouldn't fix.

The motor home and the car got all dirty from the dust and the rain, but the temperature went down to a cool 80 degrees so no one was complaining too much.  At least there weren't any kids screaming in the playground this morning and we all slept in until the rain stopped. 

Kathe and Jim took the shuttle bus up to the Temple of Sinawava to take the 2 mile Riverwalk Trail. They watched the people wade into the river to walk up to the Narrows.  That part of the trail is entirely in the Virgin River and not too many people went very far down into the canyon.  Some people were wet up to their knees but many turned back as soon as they felt the cold water.

After that hike they went on another shorter hike to the weeping rock. It was only a 1/2 mile hike but it was very steep and that just about pooped them out.

Right now, even though the sun came out again,  they are both back in the motor home just laying around napping and playing candy crush.  I hope things perk up soon and Jim doesn't forget that he promised to barbecue some steaks tonight.
