"It Never Rains In Southern California"





Finally, the rain is here. Several days of heavy downpours with strong winds. Just as I was posting this video yesterday afternoon, a large pinetree across the street came crashing down along with the electric wires. All electric power gone! The Fire Dept. came within 2 minutes. The electric company came and worked in pouring rain until 3 o'clock in the morning to fix it. The tree trimmers came at 7 and by 9 everything was back to normal minus one tree. This was going on all over town. What a place to live!

Hi Madeleine!

This is incredible! I can't believe all this rain and wind - I remember I used to love watching the rain come down in LB CA!
happy week
