Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

A little bit of thunder and rain. Yippyy!
A loud Ka-POW! woke me up early yesterday morning.
“Is that thunder?”
Dick reassured me it was. I was happy. It has been a long while since I had heard something like that.
A few seconds later, I heard a steady beat on the roof. “Is that rain?”
“Yes,” said Dick. “Rain.” Deliriously joyed, I fell back to sleep.
Unfortunately, the next time I woke up, the day was brightly shining. The ground and pavement were wet so that was good. Needless to say, the plants were happy, happy.
You bet rain is a big thing. We're going through a d-r-o-u-g-h-t, again. Normally, the rain would’ve stayed throughout the whole weekend and maybe even into the following week. For now, we look at the billowy clouds with hope.
