Sunday Fun Day

Another beautiful and cool day!

I mowed the yard … maybe for the last time! It looks pretty nice and I’m happy that I had this cool day to do it. Honestly … if it had NOT been cool, I would have just left it!!

Anyway, done and I’m happy and hopefully will only need to do a bit of “cleaning up” of various bits that decide to grow.

Meanwhile …

For the record, I have a “Cats” glass also … today happened to be a dog day!

August cool down: singularity?

There is a weather phenomenon known as a singularity. It is something that regularly occurs on a specific ( kind of specific) date. Montana has an August singularity which is a drastic cool down with a windy cold front occurring in the 8/20’s.

So.

August 6/2020. A cold front with whooshy wind and some isolated thunderstorms and thankfully a night of gentle and then downpour kind of rain.

After the front and the rain, it felt like the yard and trees and woods said “Oh, YES!”

I said the same. After several days and nights of A/C’s on nearly 24/7 and fans … lovely cool. AND even better, lovely rain!!

Today, Saturday, 8/8 … after a 2nd night of no A/C or fans and lovely cool, sleeping weather … is it an early singularity?

I dunno, but I am not complaining and all of us are enjoying.

After a cool morning, I headed to town for my Farmer’s Market run … then home to an overcast, but delightfully cool day…

***For the record … Friday and Saturday topped out at 67F. Overnight lows in the upper 40F. Bliss as far as I am concerned!

Lazy Thursday afternoon

These boys … my heart :)

Crazy, intense work week.

Crazy weather!!!

But, as always, I am grateful to be in this safe house and property with my dear Emmett and Auggie!

Thursday, almost T.G.I.F. !!!

Lazy days :)

Tuesday morning

What NOAA calls a dry cold front whooshed through yesterday. Temps were slightly lower yesterday after the front, but the big difference was the humidity dropped from upper 30% (high for here) to the teens. That allowed normal overnight cooling into the 50’s making for a beautiful and cool morning!

Auggie kept me company while I had my coffee … on the chairs, watching Emmett play in the sprinklers.

Tuesday morning.

Catching up on Monday

Monday, August 3, 2020.

I turn 65 on the 16th. Unbelievable.

The good news is that, if I make it to that birthday … GOSH !!! … YEA and I am grateful for every day. So, here we go birthday month :)
