8-4-13 (Day 11 - Rained Out)

Rain early

 

Fernykat had enough of us sleeping this morning.  She jumped on me and meowed as loud as she could.  Glad she did. It was almost 8 o'clock.

It was really humid this morning.  We decided to wait and see what the rain was going to do before taking off on the motorcycle. We didn't ride.   It started raining around 1 pm. 

We washed clothes, stocked up at Wal-Mart, and loaded the Harley in the garage.  We stopped at McDonald's on the way back from Wal-Mart.  I had a dip cone and Lauren had a caramel shake.  It wasn't the dip cone that Zesto makes, but it was okay.

We took advantage of the cooler temps and built a wonderful campfire tonight. 

We are heading toward the Arkansas/Oklahoma state line tomorrow for a few days.  We are planning on riding the Talimena Scenic Drive. Fortunately, the prediction is for a lower chance of rain.   Unfortunately, the prediction is for the high temperature of around 102 degrees.

It has only been in the 90's and hot one day during the last week.  Most days, the temps have been staying in the low 80's.  Today it was in the mid 70's.  We are going to melt!

I hope our Fernykat alarm clock for the next few days goes off early enough to beat the heat.
