My How Fickle

We are finally receiving the much needed rain that we have been waiting for. But of course in typical Florida style, instead of a nice short, daily summer shower, we've had an afternoon typhoon two days in a row. The skies literally blacken and then unleash hell. We've also had tornados touch down just south of here. Yesterday, the power went out for over an hour. You would think that since the power goes down with almost any substantial rainstorm, that the power company would upgrade the system verses having to constantly send out people to fix it and inconvenience their customers. I guess that's job security. At this point, I've had about enough of the rain. I'm ready to go back to drought. Tonight's ride is in limbo until we see the weather. It would be too perfect if the rain could come overnight. If it continues in this pattern, I'll have to put more days in on the trainer instead of actually riding on the road. That would totally suck.

Sat on the trainer for about an hour last night to get ready for a road ride tomorrow night . . . not the most fun thing in the world . . .
