Horses in the Mist

Foggy morning. Snapped this on the way to work. Hard to resist fog photos. And yes...I said "horses". Look closely.

Full On Single Rainbow!

Whoa! It's so beautiful! What does this mean? So bright! So vivid! Single rainbow! So intense!

Over Dressed

I worked at a job fair today downtown. On my walk back to my car, I passed this statue and it made me a bit uncomfortable. The heat index was 114º. I'm surprised this guy didn't melt down into a shiny puddle of nothing. It had to be swampy wearing those pants in this heat.

Rising Water

We had a lot of rain today. A good way to gauge how much is to walk over to the creek and see how high it is. This creek washed out the bridge above it a couple of times last year so they built a bigger, stronger, smarter, better-lookin' bridge over the winter. So far so good, but we haven't had a good, hard, torrential rain to test it yet. The creek was up, though. It sounded like a real river was running through town.

Storm Front

To quote a line from the movie "The Color Purple"..."It's gonna rain on yo' head."

Storm's a Brewin'!

The rain and the hail had just moved through, but this was building backwards. We walked at a quicket clip than normal to get home, just in case.

Chilly on the outside, chili on the inside!

Sara got a new, much larger crockpot for Christmas this year. She picked the perfect day to break it in. There is an arctic blast heading our way bringing snow and a high temperature of 9º tomorrow. What better way to keep warm than homemade chili!
