21 August 2009

End of August already??

Alright, I have been negligent. Perhaps a little lazy. Or...maybe I have been putting my words elsewhere, yeah...that's it, elswhere.

Anyway, I should be packing or cleaning or getting ready,because I will taking off early tomorrow to go to visit family in Wisconsin (especially these two little monkey's)

(That was taken about 20 years ago, but who's counting.)
It will be a quick visit, but that is what my baby brother wanted for his birthday. So Be It.

In my absence, I will be leaving the Manor in the capable hands of the Senior Security Rodent,Pierre.
(Be afraid, be very afraid...he's packin')

For the late news: We actually had about a week of daily rain which was very welcome, but that was the middle of July-none since.


As a result, I found a most surprising new addition to the prairie flora...

What? what the heck...

oh my gosh! edibles! or maybe not.

I beleive this is the first Fungii I have seen in the desert. Brave little things, I saw about 6-7 pushing out of the dirt. Then a week later they were all dried up.
The Prairie gives and the Prairie takes away.

See you when I get back, or in a month.
