Rain did Come

By the way, Dave and Bob took naps in their own rigs, just to clear up that last blog comment. After they woke up we all decided to walk to the Balloon Museum and check it out because tomorrow it is suppose to rain. The museum was OK, after that Dave and I decided to walk to the balloon field and see all the both stuff. Bob and Jackie were still enjoying the museum, or at least Bob was, and said they would walk down after they were done looking around. Boy the wind was sure picking up and as we walked around you saw the clouds rolling in, the wind picking up and within a few minutes the rain drops started. It never got going hard with the rain, it would start then stop, but Dave and I walked the whole thing and made it back in time for the bus ride back to the rig, never did see Bob and Jackie. When the bus dropped us off Dave went to Bob's and they had taken the bus back when the rain drops 1st started, that's why we didn't see them. It was a good thing they did because where we are parked it is nothing but dirt and the wind got going so bad, Bob had managed to reach up and close all of our windows from the outside so all that sand did not get in the coach. Needless to say we weren't able to BBQ outside, so Dave made a wonderful dinner of Sausage, peppers and onions over pasta. The 6pm balloon show was cancelled because of the winds, for 1 thing, the other was the rains that would come and go. While we were having dinner the Fireworks show did go on and we could sit right in our rig and see the whole thing without getting wet, it was a really nice evening. Bob and Jackie left about 9pm because, if it isn't raining in the morning, they still have to be on the balloon field by 5:30am, Bob said I'm going home and going to bed, it's been a long day.
