Doo, doo, doo, lookin’ out my back door

We’ve had so much rain lately that everything is so beautiful, green and lush.  The crops are doing really well and ahead of schedule. 

Here’s a few views out my back door.  IMG_3764

If you look across the cornfield to the farm with the silos…you can see the farm I was raised on.IMG_3767

I’ve always had trouble getting things to grow on my deck.  Too much sun and too much wind, but these sun coleus have done very well so far.  I love the different shades of green, especially the neon green of the sweet potato vine. IMG_3760

One night last week we stepped out on the deck about ten-o-clock and the moon was just beautiful peeking out from behind the clouds.   Quiet(no coyotes howling that night) summer nights are great, aren’t they?

  1. We finally got a little rain here, so things are green again. How did the wheat harvest go up there?

  6. I love your pictures! I would love to sit out in your yard and just enjoy the view!

    Could you send us some your rain? Our rain deficit is over 6.5 inches.
