Sunset on 

Sunday

Another storm is building for this evening. The odds are that we won't get any rain, but the light show is always incredible. I'm at work looking out the large windows toward the park, and several raptors are using the up-drafts that are building. There is always a lot of energy present before these storms. All of the animals become agitated and the humans often become intolerable. Still a small price to pay for moisture.

My other favorite view 

A really nice plant in person 

Nice colors 

Apparently my favorite view 

I rarely visit this side 

Canna's, why have them?

We had a tremendous storm last night. By far the best of the season for light shows and swirling colors. Then it rained for a while also. I took all of the pictures from in town (by the pond), and they look okay, but would have looked better with a flat horizon. The heat has been oppressive for the past week and the humidity makes it worse, but that is almost necessary this time of year. It makes the County Fair and Rodeo that much more inviting.

This could have been the hottest week-end of the summer. I barely had the energy to mow. Two of Bill's friends came by for the first time this year and were amazed at the progress we have made. I'm not surprised. None of it has been easy.
