Rainy Days and ???

It has been raining now since yesterday mid-morning. Prior to that we were getting mid-morning or afternoon thunderstorms/showers since Tuesday. So what do you do on rainy days?



We have caught up with the laundry, done some inside cleaning, had the oil changed in the Jeep, went to Bed, Bath and Beyond for a blanket and rested. I don't like being outside when it's raining and the temperature is between 48 and 55 degrees - brrrrrr.



According to the weather report last night this rain should last through tomorrow then start clearing and getting warmer - yea!!! They also said that there is a good possibility that Pikes Peak will have a accumulation of snow above 11,000 feet. I'm waiting for the clouds to go away so I can see the mountain tops again and see if there is any snow there.



This morning we went back to Focus On The Family for a live taping of Adventures In Odyssey, a really good children's christian radio program. Even though it is primarily geared to children, adults love it also, me included. There is always a good moral lesson that applies to everyday living in each program. There were about 1500 people in attendance for the taping. They encouraged audience participation which we did with much gusto! One of the "voice overs" that most everyone will recognize is Dave Madden. He play the part of the manager of The Partridge Family on the TV series. Several of the other cast members have done roles that are recognizable such as Jess Harnell who had speaking parts in Finding Nemo, A Bug's Life and Toy Story to name a few. Will Ryan who was the seahorse in The Little Mermaid. Chris Anthony who was the longest running voice of Barbie. Pictures of the cast were handed out prior to the taping for a autograph session that was held after. We opted not to go to that session as I knew that the lines would be long and I'm not a autograph seeker anyway. It was very interesting just watching the taping, complete with the sound effects. The Foley sound effect crew was there to do the effects as needed, on the spot. This is usually done after the voice taping for a show. Of course there was a lot of "cutting up" with the actors and the sound people which made for a lot of fun.

So, here we are, back at the motorhome listening to the rain again. Sure does make one sleepy - z z z z . Guess I'll close for today. Hope you have a good weekend.
