  2. I marvel at how deep blue that sky is! When I fished the Madison River in Montana, that’s the sky I remember! That was in the mid 60’s. That’s a lot of Moons ago!

    1. That rail shot is likely taken in Colorado, if I recall correctly. Outside chance of New Mexico.That railroad would be a nice bucket list item to ride. Maybe next year, sigh.

      1. It is the Cumbres & Toltec RR, which travels between Antonito, CO and Chama, NM. I have ridden on it, but that was a long time ago.

      2. If you get down that way, don’t miss the Durango and Silverton NGRR either.

  4. This looks like fun: August 26-27 the Loch Ness Centre in Scotland is holding the largest surface water search for Nessie since the 1970’s. Ought to be a whole bunch of fun people there!

        1. I’ve definitely saved some cash not having the air conditioner running the whole day. We’re at 78 degrees and it’s fine in the apartment.

      2. About 1:25 it started thundering, then sky clouded up, and finally we got rain pretty steadily for onver an hour, totaling 2/10 th of an inch. Cooled from 102* to 82*. Unexpected and appreciated.

      1. We had kittens like that once. The two-color eyes are good, because it means they aren’t deaf.

    2. Good day, czarina! Here’s another zucchini recipe…wow, these look good and would definitely add to that National Happiness Happens Day party being held on Your Neighbor’s Porch Day! The zucchini would also assist in retaining some dollars for National Dollar Day.

      1. I can buy frozen pulled pork at my grocery. Just have to pick out the larger zucchini there ( most are uniformly smallish) unless the pop-up farmers’ market has some on Saturday.

  9. Mornin’ All. Somewhat coolish, but warm in the sun which is beaming down. It is all the way up to 65* now at 10:00. I really love this weather. Yesterday I was checking the normal weather in this area and it said the normal high is 90* and the normal low is 12*. We went way past both of those last year. Wonder what this winter will bring? At least I know I am pretty much prepared for it this year.

    Looks like today is going to be pretty much like yesterday. Still sorting and throwing out. Hope that awful weather I saw on TV yesterday missed you all.

    1. Have you been out to see any of the beautiful summer landscape in your area yet? Glacier National Park, maybe?

      1. No. I haven’t this summer. That is a beautiful picture. We visited Glacier National Park last fall.

  10. Today was primary Election Day in MS. I went to my usual place, the Derby Fire Station, and found out I’d been moved during redistributing for local races. I now vote at the high school. Most races had one person on the ballot, not unusually.
