Stormy weather

Those of you in California know that we have been having a very wet and stormy winter, at least for us. Turns out the weather, after starting to warm up, has gotten stormy for Jon as well. Here's what he recently wrote.

On Sunday, "The last couple days have been beautiful days, analogous to spring days in southern California, but today it has gone nasty again, dropped a few degrees in temperature, is predicted to rain, and there are swirling vortices of wind and dust howling through the camp--not enough to be tornadoes or anything, just blowing, blowing, blowing in all different directions. It's not raining yet, don't know how long that will last."

On Tuesday, "Well, the weather got worse, it started raining, and we had a bunch of localized brown outs due to electrical wires blowing together and shorting out. In my building we were without power for about 3 1/2 hours, but working on computers you don't really need lights (the computers are on an extended uninterrupted power supply (UPS) unit). Monday's are my busy day, but they've gotten a little less busy due to some schedule changes, so that's good. However, I just learned today what the planner's schedule is going to be for the next 40 days, and it's pretty brutal. I'm pretty much not going to have time for much starting on Wednesday. Good thing, I guess, is that time will go by quickly, though I don't think I'm going to have much time for PT (exercise), etc. Oh, well."

Jon is not 100% over his cold yet, but is feeling better, so thanks for your prayers.
