Lavendar Twilight

Can you find the owlet in the twilight?

I only know this is an owlet because it was eeping instead of hooting.

Dawn Patrol

I did not see the dawn patrol balloons this morning. Only the planes.

“¡Hola guapa! You’re looking good in green!”

“I am the walrus, goo-goo g’joob, g’goo goo g’joob…”

The rain gauge shows 4.69 inches of rain for the month as I type.  There is one more day in September. Will we make it to five inches of rain for the month? The last time Corrales received more than 4.50 inches of rain in a month was July and September 2013. According to the NOAA records, the Corrales gauge recorded its all-time 24-hour precipitation record of 1.78 inches on July 26, 2013.

The owl and I were the only ones out in the rain this morning.

No trace of the moon through the thick clouds.

The Rio Grande was flowing fast and high at 7:00 a.m.

Doppel happy to be inside, out of the rain.

Rain let up for a few minutes around 4:00 p.m.

Wade through darkness gloom
Owls call, hoots fall with the rain
Soaked by storm’s soft tears

Someone left the Jake out in the rain again

When Jake and I got home from our walk in the rain last night, the rain gauge showed 1.75 inches for the month. When I left for my walk at 5:25 this morning, the rain gauge showed 1.84 inches. When I got home at 7:00 it showed 2.0 inches. The rain gauge currently shows 2.71 inches of rain for September. It’s been several years since we received that much rain in one month. It’s supposed to rain Thursday and Friday, also. It seems Super El Niño may have finally arrived.
