getting my hopes up

I'm sad to say, I don't trust the weather man. 
I remember moving to San Diego, and for the first 6 months,
we literally did not see a drop of rain. 
I remember being so frustrated at the same weather....
clear, blue skies! 
(The weather men in San Diego seemed to have no problems with their predictions!!)
Well, I'm missin' those blue skies now, and SOOO appreciate the sun. 
I remember when we were visiting the northwest last summer,
I could not get over how everyone was in their bathing suits
.... in their front yard! 
 
Now I understand why, and am tempted to do the same thing when the sun is out :) 
LIKE TODAY!!
We had BEAUTIFUL, clear, blue skies.... and are suppose to the rest of the week. 
 I'll believe it when it happens, but O how I hope my folks, who are coming tomorrow,
will get to experience some of this Northwest wonder....
I'm ALWAYS amazed at how big Mt. Rainer is when it shows itself....
and boy that mountain does not come out often! 
I don't think our guests last week saw it once, though a number of days
were beautiful. That haze close to the horizon often still covers it. 
Dear Weatherman,
Please, O please, could you be right for once??
