The corn this year...

Click to expand for better viewing.

I snagged a photo of some of the corn a few days ago...this is not as bad as some, and not as good as other. Some corn I have seen has ears, other has underdeveloped ears. And still other corn didn't get far enough along to have any. I cannot help but think of the stories from the dust bowl years. I guess a few places around had some showers but none close here.

I made 3 quarts of tomato juice today. That makes a grand total of 6 quarts and 1 pint. Even if I just have enough for a quart, I am going to make it. It is just so good in the winter....the stuff that is bought just does not compare to what is homemade.

The warning at the top of blogs has miraculously disappeared. I am glad. And hope it doesn't return.

A Ta-da and a question....

We were gone till afternoon, but when we got home, I got busy and finished this little dress. I am almost positive it will be too big for her. But she will probably be able to wear it next year.


I am still wondering what she will think of the colors...
*****************
My question is this...do any of you have McAfee antivirus and do you get a warning when coming to my blog or any others. I get them on both of mine, and just checked and do on some of the others. Since I haven't had time to really do any blogging today, not sure if it holds true with all blogs. But each Blogger blog I just clicked on, I received the warning:

We tested this page and blocked content that came from potentially or suspicious sites...blah, blah, blah.

I do know one blog that I visit regularly, half the time when I leave her page, it asks me if I am sure I want to leave the page and then takes me to another page. Which right now for the life of me I cannot remember what it says. But I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that she is not doing anything...so is it blogger/google? The page it takes me to does not seem dangerous.

So, if you have any idea about this, please chime in, or if you have had it happen to you. As for my blog, I have not changed anything on it....so feel like it is the same with everyone else's blog...that it is just something with my computer.

EDITED: I just checked using the other computer, and it doesn't block anything. And I have McAfee on it, also. So....that leaves this computer.

And the wind did blow!

Notice how the ornamental grass is bent over....the wind was blowing full force yesterday when we were out for a drive to check the creeks we fish in. This is on what we call the back road to Mansfield.


And this is what we were in. I did not try to lighten the pictures cause this is how it was for a short, short time. The wind was so strong it had blown over a tree in the road...I should say a small tree. About 4 or 5 inches at the base. Roger was able to pull it our of the way.
At one point something hit the top of the Rav with full force...I think we both forgot to check when we got home...but I would bet it dented it or scratched it at least. We have no idea what hit us...but I would not have wanted it to hit me.

Oh, and did we ever see any rain? It takes about 5 minutes from where these photos were taken to get to Mansfield dam....while we fished, at one point several drops fell. And that was it.

We are going to see the toot after a bit...so won't be on here much. Will try to visit later on.
