Yeah, but where was this nice cool weather when I was haying last week??????

Fried my brains out on the hayfield Completely miserable last week with temps in the high 80's, not a breeze to be found.

So of course today I'm in a nice air conditioned building back at work.

Maybe the rain will knock down a few of the fires around here. One can only hope.

Yeah I gotta go into the 'orifice' today too. However only for a short bit, then I can go back to my home office. I'm going to take off a little early and take a long walk in the North Hills. Need to burn off some summer BBQ baggage, lol.

You got any rain you're not using? someone upstream is using up the whole irrigation ditch (tho their pasture likely needs it more than my yard) and this piddly rain we had yesterday ain't even a start. The cable burying guys were here and turns out my front yard is bone-dry down at least a foot... now I'm rather impressed with my grass for looking as good as it does with no water anywhere in reach. Only a little crunchy around the edges.

We dug some post holes last week using an auger on a tractor, we still needed to use my brother's mini excavator to push down on top of it, (8,000 lbs) to get the auger to dig into the ground!

It was pretty dry out there....

Snow this morning!!
Highlands get sprinkling

Maybe there's hope we won't be in this oven forever

Supposed to help my father at his mill this weekend cutting some lumber. It's always 200 degrees on the site, so I'm really hoping for some cool weather.

The mill is up by our cabin, so at over 6000 feet elevation. It's usually about 10 - 15 degrees cooler up there than it is down on the flats, so I'm hoping it will be in the low-mid 70s up there so we can get some work done.

I wondered if the peaks might get some snow -- it actually smelled like snow down here last night, like there was some really cold air overhead. Is my calendar broken again? It says January.

Supposed to oven back up by tomorrow, tho.

There was a really heavy rain down by Livingston last week that had the clouds about halfway down the Absarokees, I thought there might be some white after that, but no, just heat and brown the next day. The mud up to the mill was so deep that we couldn't get up there last week, but it's probably baked to concrete by now.

I just don't do heat well. This is Montana! We're supposed to be cool and pleasant after all, not baked to a burnt crisp!!

Coyote in a park in Dallas, Texas:

Now take a second look... that's not a coyote; it's a coywolf, or maybe even full wolf.
