On the road again

Went to see my family. The milo in the area is ready for harvest. The last time I drove through, the wheat was ready for harvest. The newly planted wheat crop at the farm looks like it will be a good stand.

The kitchen sink

A nearly perfect evening here - still, moonlit, beautifully surreal.

A picture of the Pope in a pancake?

Pictures of yours truly....

Time is either moving at the speed of light or slow as molasses. Difficult to tell which on some days. Updates won't be happening for the next week as I'll be away from the computer on the Georgia coast.

Life is hectic in a good way. More rain predicted for tomorrow, along with a drop in temperature of 30 degrees.

The Kaw River crested yesterday. Didn't come out of its banks here.

Reports of the damage.

One of those six hour rainstorms sat over the house again last night. Got maybe an inch or two of rain total. This morning, I was shocked to read in the AP wires that Jefferson County, 10 - 15 miles north of here, has been declared a disaster area with flooding from a foot of rain.
