Let me clarify...
I'm not upset by the turnout. By the time I headed out, I had already been told by Lisa that--despite my insistence that it did not rain like that here, despite the forecast that said rain would end by 10am, and despite my confirmation from a relative who lives 1 mile from the park that it was sunny and dry--she had changed it to the next day.
So, I'm not upset that no one showed up. By that time, I knew no one was coming. I am upset that my input was entirely disregarded. If I have no say in the matter, then I have no business being one of the coordinators for the meetup.
So, again, I don't mean for this to come out sounding whiny, though I know it does.
Sorry, I don't know how to get it out without sounding that way. But I had a really awful week this week, and I was really looking forward to this. Chloe's been on limited activity since she was spayed 3 weeks ago, and she needed to get out and play.
Basically, a perfectly good day for a meetup was tossed aside, and I had no say in the matter.
PS.
Often, cities in the Inland Empire do not get the intensity of rain that occurs in the Orange County cities. Storms often exhaust themselves before moving over the foothills and canyons that separate Orange County from San Bernardino county. This is why it is generally hotter and dryer out here...fwiw
