Pismo Got Rained Out

Went to sunny Pismo Beach on Thursday. Was going to ride the dunes for 3 days. When we got there we set up camp and headed for the beach it was a little windy but otherwise sunny and nice. 4 hours of ripping up the dunes and just having fun then back to camp. Dennis and I had a great dinner and just hung out slept really well after all that riding. Got up the next morning and made breakfast and while we were eating the rain started and man did it come down. The next thing we know we have a lake forming around our table...hmm thats not good. So we start making a trench cause we are smarter than this water we can beat it after all we are men. Well we lost that battle, then we looked in the tent...oh crap its leaking!!! I guess we shouldn't have been laughung at those other people with the same tent who tarped theirs earlier. So now we are out there tarping the tent, have I mentioned it is still pouring rain? Get the tent tarped and look at lake will-be-gone (thats what we named it) and it has gotten bigger, look inside the tent and water is coming up through the bottom...oops. So now we have the bright idea to move the tent and we do. Long story short we finally gave up as the weather report said rain all week and packed up and headed home. Did I mention that its a 6 1/2 hour drive? Now on the way home I am not feeling to good and by the time we got home unloaded Dennis' stuff and I got home and unloaded mine it was quite obvious that I had caught the crud my wife had, yay. That was the cherry on top of the weekend. Here it is monday and I am finally feeling better. The upside is at least we got one good day of riding in.
