country roads...

back roads are the best roads...

very hazy today...

almost ready to pick...

can you say "fall"?...

these beans are the best looking we have seen...

but whole fields are coming up with no seed pods...

the blossoms fell off...

or nothing in the pods...

a drought is the perfect time to build a pond...

bottom of the pond...

vulture...

praying for the rain that might happen this evening...

we have the clouds rolling in...

just waiting to see if they are full...

quiet day...

stay inside day...

heat advisory...

waiting for the cooling off that's coming...

good afternoon for a nap...

and off I go...

just documenting...

the drought of 2012 for us...

finally, a day with big, white, fluffy clouds...

roses are dry before they even begin to open up sometimes...

mums are turning brown before they open all the way...

half of the tomatoes have bottom rot...

but here is some green starting to happen...

persimmon tree has no fruit...

picking produce...

3 weeks worth of weeds...

the fine grass is seeding...

we can see the elevator from our backyard...

weeds that should be over our heads by now...

tons of spider webs on the ground all over town...

heat advisory for tomorrow afternoon and early evening...

then we should have more rain...

praying for it to fall...

south had over an inch last night...

only 8 miles south of here...

well, off to get the kitchen cleaned up...

supper is done...

and see if I need to start laundry tonight or wait til morning...

have a great weekend!
