This and That

 

This is part of our backyard and part of the Back 6 in early summer

before the hot and dry weather began.

This is how it looks now after the long, hot summer.  It's been this

brown for quite some time now.  Doesn't it look like fall already?
The red arrow is pointing to Wily Coyote who had slipped down to the pond for a drink.  
I shot out of my kitchen window and didn't get the zoom focused before he ran out of sight.   

 Have you noticed how the days are getting much shorter already?
Fall is around the corner.  This is a busy time of year for many 
reasons.   I've noticed blogging has slowed down for some and it
has for me.   I've been poring over maps and M.apquest and trying
to decide on our vacation destination since hubby said it was up to me.
Have you had your vacation this year? 

I took my aunt and uncle to our nearest city, Columbia, yesterday

morning.  My 85 year old uncle had surgery on his shoulder.  They

are quite a couple.  He worked until he was 80 and my aunt at 86 
has all the latest techy gadgets and is quite the genealogist and also 
helps others find their ancestors, often at the local library.   
She called me last night to tell me I should take a look at the moon. 
 I thought after her long, tiring day and with all that went on, she was amazing to 
have noticed the moon...she thought it looked so 
bright and pretty!!  I just had to snap this shot and send it to her. 

Have a wonderful weekend!

Until next time...
