Could we possible be on tap for more rain? We do have some in the forecast over the next few days. More rain would be such a blessing. It’s been so hot.

Aspen screamed when she saw a rattlesnake sleeping on the back porch. Nathan, Cim and Laredo were all away from the house doing something with the tractor and planting hay grazer. So, Stockton got his trusty .22 and killed it with his first shot. Right in the head. Way to go, Stockton!

The two younger kids and I were invited to accompany Nathan and Chance on one of their jobs. Nathan knows how I like to take pictures of beautiful scenery and thought I would enjoy seeing the dinner creek area north of Silverton. The views were very dramatic and we had a good time exploring the area while he and chance worked on a couple of windmills. The kids picked up a lot of rocks and drank a lot of water. We also had some air conditioner time in the well truck which we used to make a few sketches.
Here’s some of our sketches.
