We have been getting rain at least daily and sometimes multiple times daily here. The grass is growing like gangbusters and everything is green (various shades) which makes for real beauty.
A few nights ago we were under a tornado watch but the weather didn't really develop into much until very late (like after bedtime), but around 6:00 p.m. I noticed some interesting clouds, so I grabbed my digital camera and went outside. I ended up walking down our lane, down the gravel road and back up the other lane that come into our farmstead. The views, looking in different directions, with different amounts of sunlight, front-lit and back-lit were pretty incredible. And I also got some photos of the sunset over the horizon.
Saturday evening on our way home from the homeschool conference, there were quite a few storms brewing on either side of us. We managed to avoid all but a little bit of rain, but as we approached home there was a beautiful pink sunset with sun rays showing through the dark clouds. Was sure missing my camera. While we had it in the vehicle, it was in the very back and we didn't have time to stop and get it to take pictures. Hubby was trying to get home before dark so he could do a few things before it got dark and another storm hit.
A couple days ago, I hung a decorative wooden birdhouse on a nail on our porch. Lo and behold, today, we have a couple of wrens, just singing their hearts out as the build a nest it in. It is right out my office window and I am really enjoying their diligent work and beautiful songs, given the gray, cloudy backdrop that the weather is giving us.
Sorry to disappoint but I didn't get a card reader yet and it seems that my laptop and my camera dock, don't like to work together. Hopefully this weekend, I can get one.
