... no one does anything about it.
We've all heard that old saying. Today might be different. No, we can't change the weather, but... when we booked our site in the RV park we're in, something we haven't seen before: a "weather guarantee." Well, not really a guarantee, but kinda like trip insurance. If it rains a certain amount or for a significant portion of a given day, you get a good portion of what you paid for the site back.
It was only $26, and the sites in this RV park "by the sea" are not inexpensive. When we booked this, the long-range weather forecast looked very nice. We decided to go for this "weather guarantee," anyway. Like trip insurance. As it closer to heading out, the weather on the southern California coast was looking more iffy. And today, rain is predicted. We may get some money back.
As of 7:30 this morning, the sun is out and it is breezy. The rain is predicted to roll in by 11:00 or so. That timing works for me: I will be able to leisurely unhook utilities while it is dry. We'll probably drive south along the coast, towards San Diego. No fixed plan. We know we have a place here to come back to whenever suits us.
This trip wasn't about any activities or particular sight-seeing - just looking to get away for Joan's birthday (her request). I'm always in for a get-away.
We don't have to pack everything up to day-trip from here - we can leave our patio mat and chairs on the site. With the van being compact inside, everything is always put away after we get up in the morning, so it is just a matter of latching the cabinets (they have a push-to-lock button) and rotating the front seats.
