Kansas | Life on a Colorado Farm

More flash flooding is predicted for our part of Western Colorado.

Although, we are NOT getting what the Boulder, Colorado Springs, Longmont, and Greeley area are having. (They are in the Corridor of our State) Our hearts and prayers go out to everyone in those flood damaged areas. 😦

Our rain puddles are starting to grow slime

Even the trees are showing signs of moss

We are so wet it is hard to find a spot to walk without sinking up to your ankles.

An old-timer called this the ‘100-year rain’.

This morning we had some scattering of blue skies

Just seeing the blue made me happy.

Last night there was also a break in the clouds

The sunlight was outstanding! It caught the rim of Black Canyon. You can’t see the other mountains behind Black Canyon because the clouds have them covered.

The sunlight also produced a rainbow

Rainbows always make me think of hope.

According to the weather channel today is the last horrible day of torrential rain, then the slow moving storm will move on…which means it will move toward the east possibly hitting Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and/or parts of Texas, it just depends on the the jet stream. I sure hope you don’t get the floods, but lots of really nice ground soaking rain. 🙂

I hope your Sunday turns out well my friends,

Linda

This is Terry’s grandmother’s table. It came with them from Fort Scott, Kansas, to the farm we now live on. (We bought the farm from the estate).

I fell in love with the lovely little table the very first time I saw it, but I had to wait for 35 years to buy it from Aunt Benita’s estate.

Now it lives in our house under the photo I inherited, from my mother, of my Great Grandmother, Grace Elizabeth (Hubbard) Wootton and my grandmother, Ruth Love (Wootton) Thomas.
