Well, last weekend at Grayland we had a shower in the morning and sun the rest of the day, on both days. Got to start wearing sunscreen:mad: Heard it was pouring everywhere inland.
Should be the same this weekend..:rolleyes: must be why I got a couple of dry bags to haul the kites.:embarrased:
Come to Washington for the weekend, it never rain here.:lol:

Its 100 degrees here and the rain stopped a month ago. Probably won't see anymore until September. When your shoes stick to the pavement, its too hot.
