This guy was rather noticeable yesterday as I drove down Selle Road.
He seemed to be quite happy to survey the neighborhood from his perch.
Beautiful bird.
I loved the steady rain last night.
That means the lawn won't be all dried out and pasty looking for the Fourth of July gathering.
All lawn work and other projects for the past several weeks have been geared toward this weekend's fun.
It's not only the company coming, but it's also the fact that the lawn area will take a hit after the Fourth.
Sometime in mid-July Oliver Tree Service will spend two or three days here removing the two quadrants of poplars just south of the house.
It will sting to see those trees go and to figure out how to beautify the area after they are gone.
To have a nice drenching overnight takes away some of that pain, knowing that the weather will get better and that, as we celebrate 20 years of living here at this beautiful Lovestead, the place can be as pretty as possible for the holiday weekend.
The rain also adds a nice artistic touch to all the flowers and shrubs around the place with layers of raindrops glistening with various colors for backdrops.
My brother stopped by with his coffee cup this morning. So, we did some visiting.
Hence, mutterings on this morning's post are abbreviated.
Wishing everyone a happy Monday.
Enjoy the raindrops both outside and in the pics!
