Just A Rainy Day

We woke up knowing it rained hard all night.  With the wind blowing, if you didn't know it was raining, being from Wisconsin you would think there was a blizzard out there.  When we got up it was still dark out so you couldn't see much.  The birds started chirping about this time.  Hundreds of birds always flock each night to rest and sleep. Every night  they all seem to wake up at the same time.  Well this morning, we had a big thunder boom which scared all the birds and they all flew away at one time.  No eating out side today.  The Today Show was just starting

when we started eating breakfast, a cheese omelet with some spam is a good start for the day.  By now we could see outside.

It doesn't look that bad out there.  The local weather reports were showing roads closed and flooding.   We spent  the morning around the condo most of the time doing laundry.  Time flies when you are busy.  It rained all this time sometimes with wind blowing creating horizontal rain.
Around eleven we went to Safeway to get a few things. Then we went to a small store in the same place the Farmers Market takes place.  It's a store that has original Mexican food.  They also make and sell their food.

I ordered chicken tacos and Clela ordered pork tacos.  Off we went to eat back at our condo.

Now doesn't that look good.  The small containers contained a hot sauce.  The paste could take your breath away.  My kind of food.  The hotter the better.

Later in the afternoon Clela and I took a walk around the property,  Walking on the grass was like a sponge.  I wanted to see what the stream  and what the water looked like.

 To our surprised there was a man walking in this brown polluted water.  Another surprise was his kids were wearing Green Bay shirts.  What you see is runoff from farms, you know farm animals.

This water might be around for some time.
Walking back we could see the restaurant was prepared for a bad storm.  The building looks like what you would do for a hurricane.

After dinner we notice the clouds started to open up just in time for sunset.  I only wish I was out by the ocean to see the sunset.  However I did take some beautiful pictures of the sun reflecting off the buildings.

It changed the color of the buildings.  It was beautiful.
Today was U.W. Madison day

Well that was our day. See you soon.
