Did you know that Fred and Smokey the Bear have the same birthdate? Yep, same month, day and year. Here's the really good news: Fred is alive.
Coming back to the Plateau on Tuesday morning, there was evidence of heavy rain--water flowing in normally dry washes, a mud/rock slide across Route 89A, enlarged lakes in the Parkway meadows and deep channels in the store's driveways. All due to a storm (we missed) on Sunday. The monsoon has been less aggressive for the remainder of the week. Until today--the sky looks like gray flannel and there's a steady rain that seems like it will continue all day.
The upside of bad weather may be to keep business slow today. Yesterday was tough: a big delivery to deal with--i.e., lots of merchandise to carry, lift, price, shelve or stock--while waiting on customers, ringing up purchases and monitoring the gas pumps. By the end of the day, we were both exhausted. The consolation was we'd completed our last Friday and have only three more days of work.
