Puddles on the paths

Still dawn

Almost sunset
With the rains comes the need to repair the culvert that we use to drive over the drainage ditch. I went into my one-man chain gang mode and filled in the holes caused by the rainwater ponding on the culvert. I paused to take a few photos as the sun was setting.


Sunset


Dawn is a little darker every morning. Soon it will be nighttime, awaiting dawn. Venus shines on the right, above the clouds.

It’s been wet enough to get some fungus among us!

A dark and cloudy dawn persisted throughout the day.
Spunk: “I believe ‘il fungo tra noi è il paprazzo!'”

Started the day with some purple rain

Which turned the river red
A dark, rainy day required extra light and a bird

Loki napped during a mid-morning rain shower


Dark, cloudy and rainy all day

I’m not giving you two pennies for your thoughts about il paparazzo, loki and Silver

When Jake and I went out for a walk at dawn, the first critters we encountered when we walked out onto the ditch bank were a couple of coyotes.



Harvest Supermoon on its way to setting.

Sandias and geese in the mist again.




Balloons on the rise





Clouds splashing over the sandias eventually brought rain. We have 2/10 of an inch so far.

We got a rainbow at sunset

Sandias were still socked in

The clouds split for a moment at sunset
