Thunder Storms

We had a day of thunder storms here yesterday - I must have had something to do with them it as I had been looking at all the bad weather in the uk & thinking how much better off we were here in the sun! I spent the entire day in jeans for the first time since we got here as it was relevativly cold at 70F. We ended up starting to teach the kids cribbage yesterday afternoon as all the tv/pcs were off due to the storms - I can see the school holidays here flying by (NOT!) There are still standing puddles today but the temp is back to it's normal mid to late 80s and the sun is out, we have been to the pool which has dropped by 2 degrees C overnight . It does mean however that the trip to the desert is off, Thanksgiving however is definitely on - so Happy Thanksgiving - this also means that most Americans put their xmas decorations up tomorrow as by tradition it is usually the day after Thanksgiving that they go up - I doubt anyone here will put them up so early but we shall see.
