Rainy Day?………My Actifit Report Card: July 29 2024

in Actifitlast month

I woke up sometime in the night to hear rain hitting the metal roof on the woodshed just outside the bedroom window and the leaves of the big leaf maple trees in the surrounding area. It was extremely soothing and I soon fell back to sleep. It was just after 8:00 when I woke up and almost 9:00 before I could drag myself out of bed. It was still raining and the sound was very soothing. We needed this rain badly and I decided to enjoy the weather to the fullest extent! ☔️☔️☔️

Some folks (@silvertop in particular) don’t care for rainy weather. It’s only one day in the line of many sunny days, so I say just get over it!! You’ll have sun and then heat and humidity which is worse in my opinion, dear! 🥰

Due to an Amazon return that had to go to the UPS store in Bellingham, we set out to take that and then headed down to the Bellingham Yacht Club and the Bellwether Hotel. See @silvertop’s post for pictures and details of the hotel.

There were lots of flowers and grasses along the paved walking trail skirting the hotel grounds and the yacht club.

We watched this boat as it slowly made its way from the mooring area……

….until it made its way out to the more open Bay Area.

It may have been headed to open water as it appears to be from California.

The rain at that point was just a mist and not too bad to be out in. The area is beautiful but based on the pricing of the hotel rooms at the Bellwether, you need a bit of cash to stay!

Now as I type, it is still raining and I am still enjoying it. By the end of the week our highs for the day will go from the cool 67 degrees of today to close to 90 degrees by Friday. That’s too hot!🥵

Alas, fall will be here before we know it and then the rainy season will be upon us. At some point, I will tire of it, but for now, I’ll enjoy the change for today. 😁

That’s gonna be it for now. Take care and enjoy your evening! 🙏🙏🇮🇱🇺🇦

It does feel like a day of refreshment. Too many hot sunny is not necessarily a good thing so we needed this rain. The GVRD has been enforcing water usage restrictions since May due to lower than usual local reservoir capacity.

The towns around us; Everson, Lynden, are under water restrictions as well. We have a well, but have always been careful because of our past experiences in Colorado.

Refreshing break from oppressive heat, plants appear to be far more cheerful as well.

I agree! Today is the last rainy day into the forecast that's visible, but we are headed into August, which traditionally is a hot month as well. I'm hoping for an early fall!

Take care @joanstwart and thank you for stopping by and commenting!

Dreaded summer each day I revel in the cool months down here. Have a wonderful day in sunshine that is not too hot....

Thanks @joanstewart! Take care and enjoy the coolness!🤗💜 !LADY

Enjoying the cool weather, could do with a drop of rain 🙃.

Drink some hot tea and/or coffee outside and enjoy! Or, maybe in front of a fire! I can picture it now!

On coast always able to be outdoors, warming up in front of a fire is inland. Happy Friday!

Enjoy the weekend my friend! Take care!🤗💜
