Storm clouds and Misc. evening photos...

Yes you read that right we got some rain but it was an awful storm that brought it. The wind was terrible and the younger chickens pen collapsed and they were all out running around in the brush, like wet hens, lol...Sorry I couldn't help myself :o) The clouds were gorgeous, it's been so long since I've seen storm clouds...

Rolling in...



Rain and wind...The yard gate blew open as the latch isn't working properly but I wasn't about to run out in that stuff to shut it. Wish I had though because Julie came in and broke one of my bird feeders, grr...it's only like the 10th one she's busted, goofy horse!

I just went out and checked the rain gauge and we received a 1/2 inch. I had checked it earlier when I went to get Michael from school and it was at 4/10ths but it was still raining a little bit. Beautiful rain, loved it and hope we get some more!

Down at the property this evening the vultures were in their tree by the creek drying out.

The sky looked so crisp and clear.

And the pool was a mess, ekk! I can just imagine if we had put it near a tree what it would have looked like. I spent an hour vacuuming it out and Michael pouted on the ladder and drove me nuts with his chattering, my goodness that boy can talk!

He was pretty darn happy when I finished and jumped right in...

Peek a boo I can see you but you can't see me hiding behind this branch, lol. Sometimes the deer are so silly.

Looking for food...

Momma Doe with her twin fawns from this year and one of her yearlings from last year. She had twins last year but one was a buck and she has chased him off, but the yearling doe still sticks close to her Momma. I love that the Doe could care less that I had stopped the truck and was taking photos, she's gotten used to me over the years. The youngsters are still a bit leery though and always watching me.

Julie, my poor lame horse! I took the dressings off her feet as it was causing me too much pain regarding my ankle to keep them on. I am hoping she heals with out them. She has good days and bad days. Hopefully we will get some more rain and the ground will soften up a bit.
