Rain, Wind And Football

Yesterday was almost a complere washout. It rained, it poured then it rained again. There were moments, literally moments when the rain quit. By the late afternoon the rain did quit for more than a few moments. Then the wind began to blow and is still blowing this morning. The way we are facing with the RV we are protected by trees but do you know what happens with windy conditions and the fall? Acorn bombs! We felt like we were in a war zone with the way the acorns were dropping and hitting the RV. It sounded like gunshots and/or someone knocking on the door. Needless to say Shadow was not too relaxed yesterday and jumped, in the beginning, constantly. As evening came Shadow seemed to relax a bit. The winds blew all night long and at times were strong enough to rock the RV a bit. Today, the rain is suppose to be gone until tonight but the windy conditions will continue. We are headed to Johnson City and Kingsport, TN. It is north of us and sits alomst on the border of Tennessee and Virginia. Tim and I have never been there before so it give us a chance to see more of north eastern Tennessee. Both cities are also higher up in mountains so I am hoping to get some good pictures of some fall foilage. Now, let's talk football. It was not a great week end for my teams. Saturday only one of my six teams won, two had byes, so I have to thank Oregon for winning their game. NIU, Florida and Missouri lost. South Carolina and NAU had byes. Now on to NFL Football; I did a little better there but won't know how I did with all of my teams until after tonight. The Bears WON!!! YAY!!! So did the Broncos and in fairness eventhough the Jaguars lost it was a good game. The Jags new Quarterback played very well and now if the rest of the team would follow his behavior the Jags could start winning some games. Right now they are 0-6. Not a good season as yet! The 49ers play tonight on Monday Night Football. Go 49ers! Check back tomorrow and see if I get some decent fall foilage pictures!
