En Fuego!

It has been said many times that the worst day fishing, or golfing, or sailing or etc..etc...etc... is better than the best day working. But what about when you have your best day of tennis ever? Where does that compare? It was an interesting morning. In our first set of the day I was teamed with Bill (Please go back to the older posts to see pictures of my posse). We were playing pretty well but we got skunked, 6-0. John and Tuck were on fire ("en fuego" for those of you who like Mexican food). From there on it was my day. I could do no wrong. I am not sure how that happened, but what I am sure of is that it will be a long time before it happens again. My day of kicking butt will probably turn into a day of getting my butt kicked again on Friday.

After my tennis experience the day went pretty much according to its usual pattern...work...work...work. This evening was our weekly church choir practice, which is always a good time. Our choir director, Laurie, is an incredible musician, but even more important than that is that she understands that music should be fun. We have more fun than we should be allowed to have at choir practice. What is most amazing is that when we perform the songs in the church services they are actually quite good. For our congregation, which is rather small, we have a large choir, usually more than 15 people. Tonight we welcomed two new members. Dale and Grace recently moved here from Arizona, and are joining the congregation and the church choir. Thank you God...we can certainly use the help!

And now, the weather. Today turned out to be pretty nice. The sun was shining and the temperatures made it into the 50s. We are going to have a change beginning tomorrow through the weekend. More clouds will be showing up on Thursday, with rain by Thursday night into Friday morning. From there we can expect a few showers at times Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday. It will be getting cooler too as highs in the 50s tomorrow will retreat to the 40s through the weekend. In the mountains there will be some snow falling, but probably not a lot. Most of the moisture will come through while we are on the warm side, so the snow level will be quite high, above 6,000 feet into Friday morning. That will be dropping to near 4,000 feet by Saturday, but the precipitation should be light resulting in only minor accumulations.
