… that is the question! For the last few weeks, it would seem that rainy season is here perpetually.  Then we got TS Dolly which left us with 8 inches of rain and then it seems to rain everyday a few minutes or so.

About Dolly.  Julie & I were sitting at the airport on the morning she visited Cayman.  I remember looking outside at the Boeing 737 and thinking we were not going anywhere that day ; it was raining very hard and windy.  Then, the weather died down *a bit* and they had us board the plane in small groups of 15-20 people. It was like out of “the A-team” … the group made a dash to the plane in the rain and as soon as one was group in, the next followed.  As soon as everyone was sitting, the pilot got us on our way in a jiffy before the wind picked up again!  Once off the ground, I have never seen a pilot take such a steep climb angle ; he wanted out of that storm and fast!

After some rain just last week-end … the gap between our house and next door had about 2″ of water.

Here is the backyard partially flooded. The vacant lot next to the house was completely flooded.  There are masses of mosquitoes at night now with all the standing water.  Not fun to take the dog for a walk. 🙁

This is typical … dark clouds, raining and sunny at the same time. It seems that these clouds just roll by, dump massive amounts of water and 10 minutes later its nice again.  I washed the car on Sunday … its already dirty again. For the next while I will probably stick to only cleaning the inside.

On Saturday, we had our office beach party.  We almost did not go.  It was raining all morning in Savannah and figured the beach would be the same.  I then got a message from a friend who lives not to far from the beach and she told me that not a drop of rain had fallen all day in that area ; go figure!  Here is the smoking BBQ with fabulous burgers & ribs.

Finally, since it was a family beach party, we took our Husky Aipa with us!  She definitely enjoyed sharing a hamburger with me and all the attention she got from everyone there.
