We’ve had a week of drizzly rain, gray skies, just generally yucky out there.

You’d THINK the floors would all be swept and the house as neat as a pin, wouldn’t you?

Nope! I have boots. I have a rain hat. ;)

There ya go!

Outdoor chores still have to be done...and then there’s the sheer joy of being outside in any weather. Like strapping on cross country skis on a moon lit night...and howling like a wolf.

Getting rather dry here. I was mowing last week & kicking up dust clouds that looked like a Sahara dust storm!

Last night was the 2nd fire pit night. Going along nicely, when there was suddenly an awful lot of smoke - I was trying to figure out what I’d put on the fire that was smoking so badly .... realized that the wood chips UNDER the fire pit had gotten so hot, they were glowing like embers ... and smoking. I had a 5 gallon bucket of water nearby - tossed some under the pit & kept on going. I’ll put a large piece of slate we have down to prevent that from happening in the future. Cool night, half moon lighting up the fields, saw 2 shooting stars - gorgeous!

Waiting for my first great-nephew to arrive (have 2 great-nieces already) .... labor starting/stopping for the last 3 days. Hospital sent mama home to wait ... he should arrive this weekend!

And I have a thornless Honey Locust that drops inches of inflorescence!

Tracks all over the house. (Wish I had a mud room, next house has to have a mud room!)
