This is the view that awaited me as I left the farm this morning.
The sunlight was just peeking through the clouds and a light drizzle of rain was starting to fall.
It has been raining here since late last Saturday afternoon!
At times, it dumps buckets of rain at a time!
On Sunday we had a huge puddle in front our house that was several inches deep!
I'm beginning to think we live in the Pacific Northwest with all of this wet weather!
The temperatures remain on the chilly side. Last week we had two nice days in the 70's, this week...we are back to the 50's for highs! The fields on the farm and around our valley are very green but things don't grow well in these chilly temps, so the alfalfa is short at this point!
It really needs to warm up...and SOON!
Last weekend was busy!(understatement) Countrychick and I worked a fundraiser event on Saturday...all day!
The weather was wild, windy and crazy!
Sunday we spent complaining about our aches and pains from standing all day on Saturday.
It snowed on Sunday...big, fat, sticky flakes! It also hailed, rained, wind blew like crazy and the sun peeked out for all of ten minutes!
One of our favorite hens died over the weekend. Sad!
The crappy weather is hard on the chickens!
I found out I can't purchase SD cards that will work in my camera anymore!
The new SD cards will not format correctly!
Guess I need to start looking into a new camera as well as a new computer!

Things are starting to kick into high-gear at work!
We are on pins and needles waiting on budget hearings to close and to find out what the status of our Cooperative Extension state wide will be! They are calling for a 72% cut!
I have meetings almost every day this week!
I have to unload 600 trees this afternoon (with help), but I wore the wrong shoes! I'm in flats! Ugh!
I ran over a Nevada Chukar bird on my out of the valley this morning!
I felt TERRIBLE!
They are such pretty birds and their populations are not all that strong in some areas.
This chukar is sitting on top of my parents garage. I snapped this photo when we were in town for prom weekend. These birds are pretty, not usually seen very often and have a very distinctive call...chuk, chuk, chuk, chukar. I still feel bad about hitting one this morning!
As I type this it has started to rain...again...in bucket amounts!
I just want to go curl up with a good book and hide!
It's a proven fact that crappy weather is not a good motivator...at all!

Absolutley true statement! Crappy weather totally affects the mood and by default, how much actualy gets accomplished.
I love that bird. We have something that comes around every few months that has a very distinctive call. I can never catch a glimpse of him, but I always love to lay in my bed with the window open and listen to him (or her)
Crappy weather can really make you feel like not doing anything - I think it totally effects moods!!
I am DONE with this very wet spring - UGH!! If only mother nature would listen.
Breath-taking photos.
I will wreck one of these days dodging animals in the car. I should have a bumper sticker: Warning! I brake for Possums!
I echo everyone else about the weather.
I can't believe you accomplish so much! You do more in a week than I do in a month! I think I've said that before...
How many trees--holy foliage Batman!!!
Hope the sun comes out soon!!
