Sorry I have hit a dry spell lately! Not much going on except work and sleep then work and sleep some more. I haven't felt very good. I am not a fan of being wimpy! Ughhh and Ughhh again.
We did go for a drive north of our home town yesterday. It was nice to get out even if it was just for a ride in the truck. I need to find someplace to go for a walk where the trees swallow me up, OR where the fields are so large I have a hard time seeing to the other side.
That isn't all that difficult. I am near sighted and hate to wear my glasses.
It was cloudy and hazy all weekend but we only received a little bit of rain. Not near enough! It did keep it cool and I was able to enjoy the ride with the window down.

This is what I was able to shoot as we zoomed past.......
This is one of a few fields that actually had green and growing crops. Most of the ones we saw were full of dead stubble. What a horribly hot dry summer it has been. I expect the price of food will show it too!
The oil pump was not working. It looks new and like it would still be in use.....
Cool twin silo towers.
I am not sure if they are still used to store grain or not but I thought they were very interesting.
Today we made a fast trip to Stillwater to visit Kita. We didn't get to stay very long, but it was still an enjoyable visit. She cleaned out her flower bed in front of her house and saved me bunches of the huge white irises, plus some yellow and orange daffodils! Time for me to get out in the yard and do some fall planting!
We came the back way home and I was able to get a small glimpse at some of the burned area near Manford. The grass and some of the trees are already turning green again. I bet next year the wildflowers all along this roadway will be beautiful!
I wonder how many of these trees will make it?
I have lots to get done this week. The temps are supposed to stay in the 80's so I should be able to enjoy anything done outside. I hope to get to do some photos of a very pretty little girl and her brother mid week! I will try to post them if I get to do the shoot.
