Weather is a great metaphor for life — sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad, and there's nothing much you can do about it but carry an umbrella. ~Terri Guillemets
And when you're on vacation, you are certainly at the mercy of Mother Nature....but even a "bad" weather day in the mountains beats a "good" day around here :-) Only 24 days to go!!!! Have a great Wednesday, and as always, thanks for your visits and comments.
