What a week this has been - I had hoped to get to this entry 5 days ago BUT Tuesday we (Cambria) got hit with a big Pacific storm.  We had 4 to 5 inches of rain from 5am Tuesday to 5am Wednesday & very windy gusts upto 25+.  I lost power around 2PM on Tuesday the rest of town lost power around 6PM for any where from 3 to 12 hours & of course I was in the 12 hour catagory. Our power didn't come back on until arouond 2AM Wednesday.  Needless to say no cmputer time that day.  This was also a very warm storm.  I have felt like I was back in Hawaii again with high humidity all week.  It is a little cooler today but still warm & humid.  I'm down at my In Laws thru tomorrow afternoon then we will head for home.  Auntie Marilyn & Auntie Kay are taking care of business for me so the kids will all be well cared for.  Next week is looking to be a very very busy week for me & my husband has taken the week off so we can work on our front yard fence so I may take a couple more days off & Auntie Marilyn has said she will stand in for me I think I will take her offer.

Usey
Has become quite the lover.  Took Auntie Kay by to meet him & go over the routine.  She fell in love with him & said she would go by for an extra visit at no charge to give him some extra TLC.   Everything is fine at the house didn't need to water the outside plants after the 4" of rain on Tuesday but watered the inside one's the Christmas Cactus also along with the Orchids.

Pookie, Oriville & Lucy
They got a bit wet on Tuesday, I went by 4pm to put them to bed, they were hold up under the deck & didn't want to come out at first had to bribe them out then they still didn't want to go to bed. Wednesday & Thursday they were already in bed when I got there at 5:30p.  Dick had asked again if I would put them to bed on Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday.  Auntie Kay came with me to get a refresher on Thursday PM.   

Sorry to hear about your temporary cruise delay.  Hope you didn't get to stir crazy.  I'm sure John found something to entertain you.
Gini were you able to sign up for the Cal Poly Poultry class next month?  If you were'nt I can send you the weblink if that would help, let me know.

Hope you are back to having a great cruise, you only have a few more days left.

Well that is all the news for now.  Until the next entry keep having fun.
