People who have lived here for many years say it does not rain after October. It has rained since Christmas evening and the temperature has been from 52-56 degrees during the day.  It is "chilly" in our house as we have no heat.  I did bring a small plug in heater with me and have used it for about 15 minutes a few times directly facing me!

The last two days we have had a garage sale to sell some of Bob's sister's furniture and belongings as she prepares to go back to Richmond, VA.  Saturday it rained most of the day and today it began raining again about 2:30 p.m.
Me in my rain apparel and jeans as it was rainy and cold.

Bob and Pat arranging furniture on the porch.

People came out even though the weather wasn't nice.

The furniture sale.

Wild orchids for sale.

This is a beautiful piece of furniture for sale in the trailer they will use to take back the remainder of their belongings.

More customers.  We met a lot of nice Canadians and
Americans.  We did our best to understand the questions asked by the Mexican shoppers as we spoke little Spanish and they spoke little English.

Lots of plants for sale.


While we worked, Flower played with the soccer ball.

We had dog visitors also.

Bob taking a break with Flower.

This is Fernando.  He is from Barcelona, Spain and has lived in the US for a long time.  He lives across the street and bought several plants.
 
We are all worn out after preparing for the yard sale and working it for two days in the cold, rainy weather.  We will all sleep late tomorrow!
