The sleep-over part of the sleep-over went well. After lots and lots of running and playing.
Linky and her BFF, Ellie, practiced their archery off and on all afternoon and evening—everyone settled down around 10:00 p.m. (I know that’s late, but it is the last week of Summer, and they are at Grammy’s and heck…why not ?! 🙂 )
By mid-night we heard not a sound. I crept slowly upstairs to see what might be going on…playing on IPads…? Sleeping?
Sleeping.
The pinto beans are on their last water of the season. The pods are getting dry, which means the beans have reached their full size. This last water will help the beans finish filling out.
Then we wait until all the leaves dry up. Once that happens it will be time…pinto bean harvest will begin.
My Guest today is Red Door Coop. She sent me a double rainbow which occurred in July! Alli is also from Colorado, but she lives on ‘the other side of the mountains’…the eastern slope of Colorado. Drop over and give her a comment, if you have time!

I really like your photos of the evening sky — they’re just gorgeous. I’m glad to hear the sleep-over was a success. I hope the weather cooperates so you can get the beans in without any problems.

What a great Granny you are to host a sleep over! What fun for the girls! Yes it seems that summer is nearly over, school doesn’t start in MN until after Labor Day. Then I can say summer is over…but she is sighing some last breaths around here for sure.
Exciting that you son is getting married! 🙂

Sleepovers at Grammy’s are the best. Glad yours included sleep–for everyone! 🙂 It seems like those beans were just harvested last year–time flies!
