Two weeks ago when I went home to pack for a longer stay down at my sister's near the coast, we drove on rim highway and a lot of the times during this time of year we are above the clouds. The day before I left to come back to my sister's house it was a beautiful day, cloudy below us and sunny above us. I miss my drives on rim highway when I'm not in the mountains. Also miss being home.
Slow improvement is happening with my sister. She is no where near coming home yet and still has to gain strength to walk independently and definitely has memory issues. I can only pray all this will be resolved for her in time.
It snowed in the mountains yesterday at a higher elevation than we are. There is more snow coming next week and I can say I'll be fine with not seeing snow this winter. I can see photos on FB that I follow for mountain news but I'll be down here at the central coast with beautiful weather.
