The photos here are from the spot I've been taking photos and posting for the past few months.
The cutting bailing the rolls of hay were delayed a bit due to the cooler and wetter than usual weather. But finally done and rolled this was how it looked on last Monday morning.
Today, Friday, and its cold, rainy and 56 outside. About 25 degrees cooler than it was last year at this time. The hay rolls had been taken away and stored earlier in the week for use and resale.
Usually these fields provide two more cuts of Alfalfa, we'll have to see how the weather cooperates.
Looking back across the neighbors field towards our property on the left of the photo.
This July 4th we'll be staying in our area. We might go so I can take photos of the fireworks from the roof of the building, or we might not. They don't start until 10 PM so getting there taking the photos and then getting back might make it kinda late so we're not sure yet. Last year we'd taken the trailer and spent the weekend in Canada at the Fort Steele historical town. A lot of fun but it was very hot last year. Predicted to be in the low 90's by next Thursday, maybe our one or two weeks of really hot weather will come and go and it can stay in the 70's to low 80's like it has for the most part so far.
Other family news, today my father is/was to have a procedure done to electrically help get his heart working as it should. He spent several tense, for him and us!, days last week in the hospital. he was sent back home with an appointment to come back today for the procedure.
Last Tuesday was brother Darrel and his wife Connie's wedding anniversary. Of course even with all the electronic reminders I forgot to get a card off on time so they got the congratulatory E-mail. I guess not as nice as a card, but I remembered, even though last minute! Besides from 1984 is a noteworthy long time!
Laura is doing OK, still having tests done. Still not letting us know how she's doing but she did finally contact Stacy via e-mail once.
Sandy and Sean and their spouses are doing OK too, as far as we know that is! But it's summer, they're all pretty active and traveling locally often, that California lifestyle we don't miss!
Guess that's it for this week. Hope everybody has a great holiday where ever they are.
