Wet Volleyball!


Today, some friends wanted to play beach volleyball. We planned to go to the usual spot at Turtle bay. It seemed like good weather, but down the road it suddenly turned dark. Then it started raining. Bilge was sitting behind me on my scooter. It was raining fairly hard, when he said, "Hey, it must be raining further up...all the oncoming cars are using their windshield wipers!" I screamed, "It IS raining, I'm just absorbing it for you!" He finally started to feel it as we slowed down at the gate to Turtle Bay. I was soaked clear through. As we pulled up to the beach, it was POURING! We decided to wait it out, and ended up staying to play. Our games were full of intermittent rain storms. It was actually rather fun! We were soaked and we hadn't even gotten into the ocean yet!
Driving home was crazy! It rained much harder on the way home. I was getting hit with raindrops while going about 40 mph, which honestly made my face numb after a while. The photo you see is shortly after Bilge and I pulled up to the Hale. Crazy stuff eh? Hopefully, this is temporary, but my phone is not working since this episode. Everything was drenched...so pray the phone comes alive!
