A huge storm is supposed to come in tomorrow, bringing 40% rain for Monday, 30% for Tuesday, and 20% for Wednesday.
We are still working on the pinto beans. Keep your fingers crossed it misses us and stays in the mountains only.
Talk to you in the morning…we have lots to do today!

Finally! The end of January is approaching. Winter is gradually giving way, although we have at least all of February if not part of March.
The days are getting longer, which always helps with the winter-time blahs.
I’ve decided that I want to take a photo of the trees each month at the same time …there should be an awaking as we move closer and closer to spring.
Here is the cottonwood and the weeping willow on this last day of January!

This week’s Sunday Stills assignment was Corners.
Here are a few from around our place…even the tractor shed complete with the old standing lamp, Terry is saving to work on sometime.
Thanks for stopping by!

We are rapidly melting here. The predicted snow storm blew in and around us and left. The days are warming up to around 37-40* then cooling down to 10-12* at night.
This is a bigger January thaw than I originally thought we were going to have. I really can’t decide if this is good or not. Snow means water, water is the lifeblood of life..hummm.
Of course, if the snow stays in our mountains, I could handle not having snow down here. The frost is deep, deep in the ground so we will not be thinking of spring for at least 8-10 more weeks. (It is January I remind myself daily)
Then this morning — during morning chores I saw it! A sun dog—a sure sign winter is still here and colder weather is on its way!
