The wind picked up yesterday
Becoming a menace by the end of the day.
Then the weather cooled down rapidly…going from 82* to 72* (27c – -13c) within 60 minutes
The wind shrieked, 
and pelted us with little shards of dust
Late, late into the evening, all the little hummingbirds feasted at the feeders, trying desperately to fill up– to stay warm, before the thunderstorms arrive today.
This winter storm is to be in here for three days, but…
Maybe if I am lucky I will get to see a rainbow!
That will be really special.
I took this photo years ago at our home town cemetery. I think it is still appropriate even today.
Today we remember.
All those who cared for us and our way of life.
Allowing us to live in hope.
Your friend on a western Colorado farm,

I hope the storm won’t be as bad as they are predicting, and I definitely hope you get to see one or more rainbows. Your Memorial Day photo is always appropriate.
