In & Out arrived right on time, dropping off the mini-excavator yesterday morning, and we wasted no time putting the digger to work.
The only downside to all this hard work is that we have to take attention away from finishing up the second SunStation, which is due to be delivered in a few days.
After spending all day digging and scraping and leveling, et cetera, a storm moved in early in the evening.
What seemed like just a small and isolated rainstorm ended up dropping a half inch of rain as it moved in and out of the area, and then back again? It was very confusing, listening to the storm, because a strong burst would hit, then taper off and end. Then half an hour later, the rains came back. And the lightning never went away. There was a fantastic light show for hours, long into the night.
But even though there was plenty of rainfall around the mountain, our neighbor Dan got hardly any precipitation at his home which is nestled into the Northwest side of the West Corazón Peak. The weather here can behave in ways you wouldn't imagine.
There seems like there is a chance of more rain in the forecast, which would make this the wettest October we've ever had if it comes to fruition. No doubt that will make hunting season even more active this year.
