Friday

Every creature is looking for food

Every creature is looking for water.

Even the moon is looking strange

in these dry hot times.

Thursday's Things In A Row

Row of bovines

I show today.

Freshly tagged calves

staying away

Not falling for that jive.

They'll tag your ears.

Run and hide!

Hiding between Mom and Dad

this calf is not being had.

Check in with Pat

at her Edge with A View

Join the fun

and have a ROW-day too.

Celebrate Safely

Whether you chose to relax

or spend your day

with friends

Be Safe!

Happy Independence Day!

We Have No Fire...

except in the sky.  It is most intense.  Rain and moisture is a sweet dream that hasn't come.

Many are selling their cattle because there is no hay.  We are lucky to be able to irrigate our pasture but the cows seem to be ahead of the grass we have.  We are feeding range pellets.

The very sad part is it's not just our state but the states that grow much of the country's food. 

Light a candle and pray for rain...but don't drop it in the grass.

Mag 124 Ophelia

Ophelia by Odilion Redon

The dysfunction of a family
Is acted out in parts
Everyone is guessing
No one know what lies within the heart.

Distrust and lies
Murder and lust
Mattered not in the end
They all returned to dust.

Some found solace in insanity
Others in death and plots
The innocent were not protected
A joyous tale it was not.

Poor insane Ophelia
was not alone
The entire bunch was crazy
To the bone.

Ophelia waits for no one
Singing away her day
The river called her softly
She obeyed.
