I have a full bus! All the seats have been reserved for our trip to Atchison to view the total solar eclipse on August 21. I am starting a wait list in case someone on the list can’t come. Let me know if you want on the wait list.
Feels good to have the list of those going complete. I’m excited others signed up to come along with me. It will be a really fun day!
Some friends brought me over some fresh beets they picked out of their garden this morning along with extra beet greens for my chickens. My chickens love beet greens and I love beets so we are all happy campers today.
I saw a beautiful rainbow last night after the storm blew through. I only got a few sprinkles and just a little wind for a brief time. It sprinkled again this morning but most of the rain went around me both times. I sure could use an inch or two to fill in the cracks in my yard. Loving the cooler temperatures. The heat is to return tomorrow.
Another quiet day for me. I may go into Emporia this afternoon to get some groceries. Need to wait until I decide what to fix so I will know what to buy. I do want to get some veggies so I can roast them with the beets I got this morning. Since it isn’t too hot I can turn the oven on and fix something tonight. I have some hamburger thawing so I can make a meat loaf. May need to invite the kids out to dinner as there is no way I can eat a meat loaf by myself.
Pioneer Bluffs is having a Brass Quintet play this coming Saturday at 1:30 followed by an ice cream social. I volunteered to help with it from 1:00 to 3:00. Come and enjoy the music and home-made ice cream if you need something to do this weekend. The ice cream social is a fund-raiser and they will be accepting donations for that.
Finished the first panel on the third baby blanket I am knitting. Didn’t have anything else to do last night and it seemed to be a better use of my time than playing iPad games.
Quiet day. Quiet mind. Cool temperatures. All is well on the prairie today.
