More babies...


My other setting hen is hatching babies...4 so far and I hope we get a few more. She's doing a lot better than the other hen and is such a good Mom...









The watermelon...

has been picked...

We only got one watermelon but it was a doozy...I'm thinking at least 40lbs! The canteloupe are ripe too and I've picked 5 so far with more growing...They are so sweet! We'll wait to cut into the watermelon until Fred is home as he is so proud of it...

The Good and The Bad...

The good thing today is I saw a Road Runner...The bad was the only camera I had was the point and shoot...



~
The good thing is I didn't cut it all the way off...lol...The bad is that fingers being pinched between two pieces of metal hurts like heck and bleeds a lot...



~

The good thing is that I found a young leopard frog in the flower bed at the house and he'll eat the spiders, the bad is if the chickens find him they'll think he's yummy...



It was a Hot but beautiful day today...Hope y'all are having a great weekend!

The sky this evening...

We had plenty of storms all around us this evening and a little bit of rain here at the house but not much...1/10th of an inch and 8 miles away they had 3 inches, sigh! We really could use some rain and more than 1/10th of an inch...

 The cloud formations were pretty neat...

~

 Here is one shower we had...big fat rain drops and the bright sun shining down...

~

 And of course with the rain and sun comes a rainbow...East Looking towards Victoria.

~

 Topping out...this is looking South

~

 Love watching the sky...

~

 Thunderhead building up to the SouthEast...

~

 Gorgeous sunset...

~

 One of my favorite types of clouds, Mammatus clouds. I call them Popcorn clouds and think they are so cool looking...

So strange and eery...

~

We have another chance of showers and storms tomorrow, hopefully we'll get some rain!




Rain drops are falling on my head...

We had a brief shower this morning, really brief...But any rain is welcome! It's so dry and the grass is brown and crunchy once again...

 Rain drops are falling on my head...

 Beautiful rain...

Life giving moisture...
