11:00 a.m. – (okay, it is closer to one and still don’t know if I can get this posted after two hours!)  Having some issues with just about ALL my technological systems right now, and have had for the last couple of days.  Trying to sort out.  By now, most of you here in California know we are at the beginning of a series of storm systems, which may impact our highway, the construction at Rocky Creek and so many other aspects, such as my power system, Internet and just life in general.  I had heard the storms would clear out for next week, but yesterday’s latest, conveyed by Rock Knocker who has satellite tv and local news and weather, says that is no longer the case.  I will do what I can to keep this blog up-to-date with current information, but winter always poses a challenge up here in the hinterlands.

At least my non-technological systems (roof and fireplace) are keeping me dry and warm!

Reminder – the CPOA annual meeting is this coming Monday, the 19th at the Grange.

Reminder #2 – Rocky Creek will be closed from 9 p.m. to 7 a.m to ALL traffic Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.  It will be open for the Thanksgiving holiday Wednesday and Thursday nights, then for the normal weekend opening Friday and Saturday.

Check back later for possible updates, if I get my systems functioning property, or maybe I can get bigsurdeb to update for me!
