Monday was a sunny day with a high of 83. The humidity was low so it would have been nice outside, except for the wind. The combination of lack of rain, the high winds and the low humidity put us under a Fire Weather Warning. That's not really a big deal for us in the campground but I suspect it could be a big deal in areas with more grass and brush.
The wind advisory extends until 7 PM Tuesday. Steady winds of 20-30 mph are occurring with gusts up to 40 mph. Last week construction crews started work to repave Graham Road, in front of the campground. The concept of dust suppression (a little water sprayed around) is apparently foreign down here. It isn't horrible but you can occasionally feel the dust getting blown around.
Monday's highlight was the St. Patrick's Day potluck here at the campground, 70 people attended. Lots of good food. We sat with a couple who are from northeast Ohio. There were multiple Irish themed food items, plus American standards. Kathy made ham and scalloped potatoes and homemade tapioca pudding. She dyed the pudding green. I tried several of the Irish dishes and they were good enough to go back for seconds.
I'm starting to count down the days. We plan on heading north some time between March 28 and March 31. The plan is to arrive back in Centertown April 6, at the latest.
God is good. I pray that He blesses you and yours. He has blessed me.
