    Not just "not ideal"...they're downright coming apart! Sinkholes on HWY 1, potholes enlarging on 17 and 9, mudslides, downed trees, ahhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Maybe in a month or so, things will be back "up to snuff."

    Even track days are not "ideal" since it is always raining.

    I prefer a dry track for obvious reasons...

    BTW, anyone going to Infineon tomorrow to see Scott Speed do some promo work at the kart track?

    This rain is getting tiring. This rain is non stop; all continuous...

    Watch out for pot holes guys. I have bent many wheels because of pot holes on the freeway.

    Yes, F this rain. I am in the middle of a second garage being built and this rain is turning the pad into a mush pit. Pretty frustrated.

    What kills me is that I am Seattle today. It's clear and 68o! I called home in Sonora where it has been seeing thunderstorms and heavy rain. I'll have to post picks of the waterfall that is raging in my backyard on Friday when I get home. Melodie tells me it's an insane wall of water coming down!

    Same. Feels good. Must swim in the mornings. Only problem is that it's freezing when you get out.

    Every cloud has a silver lining. I hear the Glory Hole at Lake Berryessa is spectacular. 4 feet above the lip.

    The sun is supposed to be blasting tomorrow, for what that's worth. I have Friday off, but am contemplating taking tomorrow off instead (so I can see what the sun really looks like).
