At our house now

We had planned to get Lorelei this past weekend, but it didn't work out. But yesterday did. We met Sarah in the middle, transferred Lorelei's carseat, etc and headed home.
We were about two-thirds of the way home when she told me to take pictures of this big cloud. I took a few. They were pretty.
Then I just held the camera up, on autofocus and aimed towards her seat, or what I was hoping was her seat. The above shot is the first shot...I just love it. You might have to click it to see the gleam in her eye...
She sang a big lot of the way home...the ABC song, Itsy, Bitsy spider, even made up a version of the Mamaw Spider going up the water spout, and and I love Mamaw With All My Heart little tune.

Needless to say I will be pretty well occupied for two or three days.
*************
We actually had thunder and lightning about 3:00 a.m. and a little bit of rain. There is actually a mud puddle across the street! First time I have seen one of those things here in a long, long time. I don't think we got a lot, I couldn't stay awake to listen, but at least we got some.

Another old implement

This is another implement from Patton's Corner...Roger thinks it might have been a plow for digging potatoes and when I google the term for pictures, I think he just might be right.

Still hot here, but not the 100 degrees....and supposed to fall down til the highs are in the low 80's by this weekend. There is a chance for rain starting on Thursday night. At least that is what they are saying right now.

I got almost 4 quarts of tomato juice today...a complete surprise to get that much...but happy to have it.
