Under the Full August Moon —- Thursday, August 3, 2023

We GOT rain!  Thankfully the hay is all in and stacked.

RAIN!  Beautiful wonderful Rain!

And we got a smidge of something—rainbow, sundog, something.  I’ll take a sundog–it means a cool down.

The full moon through the rain clouds was Stunningly beautiful!

Heat Weary — Wednesday, August 2, 2023

We had a wind come up—scattering tired heavy weary leaves everywhere.

We sure need a cool down.

Maybe some rain, now that the hay is in! 🙂

I love Summer, but not so much this year.

An Epiphany — Tuesday, August 1, 2023

An epiphany happens with you suddenly have a flash

And enlightenment.

Maybe this wasn’t a true epiphany, but it sure was a huge change to the massive heatwave we’ve been having.

A few little sprinkles occurred while we worked at finishing up the hay field.

The Sound in Silence—-Sunday, July 30, 2023

Have you noticed (wherever you live) there is no absolute silence anymore?

Even the most remote spots have the presence of  a roar in jets or distant traffic

(see the bunny?)

Welcome sounds of liquid bird songs—-always welcome

And the dappled shadows of gently rustling leaves in the breeze

A soothing delight.

The sounds of silence eddying gently

Bringing with it a tiny rainbow—a source of huge delight.

From my heart to your world,

Linda

The Adventures of Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai on Friday—-It’s SO Hot, Mom is Even Tired of the Heat, Friday, July 28, 2023

It’s 104-105* here with a real feel of 111-112*

It’s so hot the trees are protesting by losing their leaves

Mom says it’s hard to keep things wet.

Dad agrees with her.

Black and sun make a doggie pant

The heat makes a kitty with two coats a tad tired.

HOT!! Is the word for the week!

It Grew too Hot to Bale Hay —- Thursday, July 27, 2023

It grew too hot to bale hay—Dad only bales hay when the dew is on the hay.

When he came inside he said, “Let’s go for a ride”.

Mom picked me up and got in the pick-up with Dad;  off we went–

to the Uncompahgre Plateau where we saw lots of neat things.

At one point— Mom and Dad and I went for a walk so Mom could get a photo

Of the Lone Cone, way over there by Norwood, Nucla, and Naturita.

My Nephews Came for a Visit — Wednesday, July 26, 2023

Apollo in the back, Loki in the front.

It’s taken me a long time to accept other dogs.  I can finally do so with these two.

I’ve always liked company—dogs of all types.
