No rain today!


While we had plenty of ominus-looking clouds today and a few sprinkels this afternoon the day passed without the rainfall we've been having since Monday night.  Charles recorded 3.1" in four days (Monday night thru Thursday night). 

Charles had a bit of excitement Thursday evening.  He was coming back toward McCamey from the east when he spotted a funnel cloud coming down (from the direction of Crane to our north).  Shortly after arriving home, the bad weather sirens sounded!  Fortunately, nothing much came from the storm other than some heavy rain and lots of wind.
Tonight, Charles was enjoying the cool evening breeze on the back porch when a hummingbird stopped by to check Charles out.  It got so close Charles could feel the breeze from the bird's wings!  Charles also got a nice picture of the finches that have built a nest in the artificial geranium hanging basket.  The finches are a 'talkative' pair!
