April 1 - rain - is this a joke/?

  Next day we get clouds and see rain elsewhere but none falls on us. WE are off early to meet up in the Catalina foothills with Vollie & Bill from Colorado, who have a house on 2 acres up there now. they have a lovely hike up to a waterfall planned and blankets of flowers all the way up. Not strenuous and very rewarding with yellow and orange California poppies everywhere. WE stop at a nice Mexican place for lunch then have tea and watch the birds and wildlife at their place for a while. It's cold when we get back to I make hot cocoa for me and green chile beans on toast for Ted.
  It's now time to make some serious bookings for the way north as e are running into booking problems all over the place. The camping in Page on the Colorado river is full, as is the camping in Sedona where we plan to stop off this time too. I cover my ass with hotel bookings and keep calling campsites til I get a booking. People cancel out all the time. You just have to keep on it. Bad news when we don't have wifi, I have a phone here but no data.
