Weather Goddess, Wherefore Art Thou?

As I desert civilization, clearly the Weather Goddess has currently deserted me. Cuz as I left today with my dad and our friend Ken to hike the PCT (that'd be the Pacific Crest Trail for the uneducated. Here - http://www.trails.com/pacific-crest-trail.aspx Learn it, love it people!) it has been non-stop rain. Might even snow. This might be a little more "fun" than I originally signed up for...

So we drove all day to get to SoCal. Ended up in Warner Springs around 8-something, due to the icky weather, my mentors in all things PCT decided we were going indoors for the night (cuz let's face it, who the heck wants to pitch a tent in the rain at NIGHT if you don't have to?) and stopped at Warner Springs Ranch (http://www.warnersprings.com) for the night. THIS PLACE IS AWESOME! I might drive down here and hang out for a couple days just for the heck of it! We got our room, had a little free cheesey rice and lentils for dinner, then Daddoo and I headed to the lodge for free internet and Ken went to the Hot Springs.

Signing off now. Hopefully, there'll be more free internet in my future over the next 2 weeks so I can keep relaying my adventures!
