Before arriving in Abilene, we checked the weather. Clear skies all around. Temperature was to drop to 80 by midnight and 75 by 6am. We got to the KOA and checked in, set up camp,made dinner. Stef made short ribs, sweet potatoes and zucchini. As we ate, we received warning of possible storms. We finished eating as it began to drizzle. We got our stuff put away - except the tent- as it downpoured. While sitting in our car, we watched our tent float away in the river created by the rain. It was stopped by a grill. We saw hail - not in the storm report - which was the size of large marbles. There is thunder and lightening (not cloud to ground though, so that's good), massive winds (55 mph) and a lot of flooding. Tonight we will sleep in the car while the tent stays out and attempts to dry. Dessert is watermelon. :)

Yuck-a-rooney-poo!! Berkshire weather report: clear and sunny yesterday, temp about 72 so we hiked the Asherwiltercook. At night the temp dropped to 58 so we cuddled up under the extra quilt. We needed the heater this morning. After breakfast it's up to 70 again. Midling Scottish Play last night. Rick and Ninoska for dinner. They're great. Have to rush off now to water the plants. They're dry. Tee Hee.
Love u both.
