Hard to believe this coming weekend is Labor Day weekend and our 51st wedding anniversary! These 51 years have flown by. Not much going on this past work-no sewing. Giving my right shoulder a rest. Did pull out a very old needlepoint project. It will take me a while to get back into the rhythm. Had to buy another book on stitches as I think I gave all mine away. Good ol' Amazon!
Our backyard is starting to get more butterflies- lot of Monarchs as well as some Queens. We have been enjoying watching them and Galen has caught as few with the camera.
The first one is a Border Patch on our Grey plants Mist.
We discovered some more tree damage on one of our Live Oaks from the winter storm. Probably a small crack on the top of a branch where we could not see it. Finally had a little wind and it came down partway. That part had been drying out the past several months.
Yesterday we took a drive out to an area SE of Thrall. The people have been reporting that the wood storks are back again this year. We were there by 8:30 and rewarded with seeing approximately 30! We came up on them real fast-they were in an area around a sharp bend in the road that had water. They flew but then landed in a tree close by. Have never seen them this close up before. Galen got some great pictures this time.
That pretty much takes care of August 2021!
