Howdy, PRO!
I saw, after I’d posted, that you were hangin’ with son-boy last night. Hope y’all had a grand evening.
Whew, we’re about ready for some nice weather here. Could you share some of yours? It’s been cloudy for days and raining off and on. Pouring right now. At least it’s been cooler and that’s a plus.
Suvi’s doing well tonight but had a rough time last night. VERY sore lil girlie. She’s still not back into “terrorist” mode yet and she can take her time with that. It’s been kinda quiet without her stirring everyone else up. LOL

no, the beans aren’t ready for harvest just yet. The fields look pitiful with all the yellow and brown leaves but it’s part of the process. I’m guessing they’ll be ready by the end of next month.

It did cool off al throughout the day. We even got a bit of rain...but only 1/10th inch. Right now it’s 55. Supposed to be back up to 90 by Friday! Sigh. How does that even happen! LOL!
Did y’all get a touch of the cold front too? Any rain?

Wow! You’re quite a bit cooler than we are. We’re at 72 right now and it was 75 when I went to town for groceries this afternoon. Supposed to be low 70s tomorrow, then warm back up to low 80s by the weekend.
We’ve had the rain today! I went to sleep listening to thunder and pounding rain this morning, then more rain moved in this evening. There’s over 2.5 inches in the gauge right now and it’s still raining.

Hey there, Kathy. It was a good enough day. The rain stopped long enough for grocery shopping in the dry but it’s back now. Could get more tomorrow. Wish there was a way to send some up your way. We’re gettin’ kinda sick of it after so many dreary wet days. LOL
