Hi Gang.
The first wave of the week of rain has just started. So far, so good. OAT is 56, and we have 0.11" of rain so far. Word is we will get more this afternoon, tonight, and tomorrow.
Batten down the hatches.

All this rain and we still pay a premium for tap water 💦,
trucks running great but I think I wore out my drivers seat , every time I drive any kind of distance, my sciatica flares up, there’s no adjustment in the seat only in the back rest and lumbar , Ford messed up on these seats big time.

Based on all the rain Washington & Oregon have been having, that sounds like you're getting a break.

We ended up with 0.11" of precip yesterday. Not great, but welcome. Today, so far, we've gotten 1/4", but it's still coming down. The radar says more is on the way.
With all the early rain we got a bumper crop of Chanterelle mushrooms. I can't remember when they started popping so early. However, now that we'll be getting about a week of rain, maybe we'll get another?

Luckily her in my area all the heavy rains and winds missed us. 10 miles to the West there was a little wind damage but maybe 50 miles to the West a place called Leavenworth, sustained quite a bit of damage, both flood and wind damage.

Ford wants way too much for everything. $92 for a single hubcap? I bought 3 off eBay for less than that. $73.73 for an antenna mast? No base, or cable harness, just the mast. That is ridiculous. I bought it thinking it is genuine Ford so it should fit. Nope. The base and wiring are no longer available. So, I made it work with JB Weld. Should have done that with the "free to me" GM antenna mast that a friend gave me.
