And a Man picking beans...it's a rough job but someone has to do it!
 
 
It's been overcast and rainy today...we only got about 2/10ths of an inch of rain, enough to bring on the humidity and the mosquitoes!! I'm hoping for some sunshine tomorrow!

A few photos from the past few days...

I managed to take a few photos the past few days...
 
I broke Michael's radio flyer wagon and instead of throwing it away I decided to make it a mobile flower bed. I thought it turned out pretty.
 

One of Michael's sunflowers!
 

Cantaloupe, one of many!
 
 

 Sunflower
 
 

Ladybug
 

Beefsteak tomato, it's huge!
 

Marigold
 

We camped down at the property the other night, it was so peaceful and a great night spent with friends!
 

Fred sent me this photo today while he was on a well site near Tilden. He had to lay the boom down due to the lightening. Looks like a nasty storm!
 
We've been quite busy the past few days, pool party, camping with friends and getting ready for our trip, plus the everyday things that need doing! We've watched storms to the East, West, South and North of us but hardly a drop of rain here.
