Needing a Break —- Monday, October 12, 2026

We decided to drive up and see how low Blue Mesa Reservoir is — this is where we get our irrigation water (and what helps fill Lake Powell —- therefore, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, and California)

This is terribly sad.  It’s heartbreaking really.

They are saying we are in need of five years of really heavy, deep snows.  Terry says— yes, and five years of NOT using the water so it can actually fill up the reservoirs.

Gosh. It’s all so sad and scary.

Here are prayers for moisture.  Lots and lots of moisture.

For everyone and everything and all things.

From my world to your heart!  May Blessings Abound for all.

Here Comes the Sun —- Thursday, October 8, 2026

The Lifebeat of the earth, the sky, and every living thing

The sun — the light of our days

The vision of flames and the heartbeat of God(s)

God(s) is truly everywhere.  I’m sure you agree.

May Each of You be Blessed in Wonderous Ways,

Linda

With a Huge Sigh, the Willow Lost a Whole Part — Wednesday, October 7, 2026

A whole part of the trunk of the very ancient willow tree split and fell.  It was planted in (about 1920) when Terry’s grandparents came to live here.

It’s huge!  HUGE!!

It’s going to take us days and days to take care of everything.  (We have the days, so we can do it)

It’s a sad mess.  Crumpled the stock trailer and the gate, but it can all be fixed.  It just takes time.

May each person reading this have delightful blessings today.  You are worth it!

After the Rain —The Clouds Started Leaving — Tuesday, October 6, 2026

Gradually, the sun broke through the dark, heavy clouds

As evening came on, a small wind arrived

The sun started sinking until the sky turned to fire, with nothing but a memory of those three days and three nights of rain.

Stunning!  Lovely! Marvelous!

May Blessings Abound for each of you, My Friends,

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty, TLC Cai-Cai, and Mr. Hobbs on Friday—After Three Days of Rain, Friday, October 2, 2026


THREE DAYS!!

And just as many nights!

Mom and Dad were delighted.


The cats and I not so much!


Trying to get news.  Or finding a dry spot to do my business.  Hard!

But now the rains have left for a spell and dry has come back!

No more padding through mud, or tall wet grass!

No more staying in the house ONLY!

Off Mom and I go, cause, THERE IS STUFF TO SEE OUT THERE!

The Rains Came and Came and Came — Thursday, October 1, 2026

This is very hard on the harvest right now. (Onion, ensilage/silage, pinto beans)

Our hay is all up, sold, and paid for, so all we have to do is relax and enjoy this beautiful weather.

The rain came early Monday morning and lasted until Thursday morning.

May Blessings abound for each of you, My Friends!
