A lovely heavy rain came in yesterday, bringing with it cooler temperatures.
We slept with only one window opened last night and woke to a beautiful wet morning.
Other signs of change include: yellowing of leaves on the cottonwood trees, the pinto beans getting ripe, the corn starting to dent, golden rod blooming, and the rabbit brush in bloom.
As soon as the earth gets dry enough and the rain leaves our area the third cutting of hay will begin. Which should be Wednesday or Thursday of this week.
Our sunset last night was just a dot of color the clouds were so thick, and the sunrise this morning was of a huge red orb peaking though the cherry trees. The birds are still here, a hummer greeted me early, early, as I went out to the chicken house, and songs were filling the sky after a very wet and LOUD/CRASHING/FLASHING night.
Good Morning everyone! I hope you have a wonderful day!
