This evening............

It has been a rainy day. We woke up to thunder and no power this morning and it has rained most of the day. I decided to take a walk around the yard this evening - so I put on my RED rubber shoes and headed out the door with my camera.

The sky looked pretty creepy...we have a thunderstorm warning and tornado watch.

The swans were in the yard and did not head for the water when they saw me. One of them hissed at me, but I stood my ground!! (If the day comes when one of them chases me I will be running for higher ground!!!!!!)

This is the overflow tube - the pond is surely overflowing.

Next I went in the barn and Baby came just close enough that I got a shot of her peeking around the boat trailer. I used the flash because it was so dark in there - and Baby's eyes are glowing green!

Snapped a pic of the tractor just because all the rain had made it soooo bright and clean looking.

Couldn't take shot of the yard without including Bob's "sculptures" I call them the giant rolling pins!

The garden. The raised beds are great. The ground, on the other hand, is waaaay too soggy to plant. Cold or soggy - I don't think we will have a bumper crop of anything this year!

As I headed back to the house Toe-Toes greated me on the deck.

I stopped at the door and took a few shots

of the Hummingbirds....

They are loving this rainy evening!!
