Waiting for Rain



Since I live near to the mountains, the weather here is very dynamic.
Suddenly, it gets so windy like storm is coming, and dark clouds appear in the sky.
I think it is a sign that the season will change from summer to fall soon.

What disappointed us when we had the dark clouds shown above 2 or 3 days before was the clouds didn't drop rain in our area.
The dark clouds disappeard very soon and we had sunny blue sky again.

We haven't had rain for a long time and my garden has been way too dry.

Hope, we will have rain soon!

New Bird Bath


A new bird bath for my back yard.

It was a surprise that I had a very hard time to find a new bird bath available near to my house.
Before, Home Depot, Lowe's, and other garden stores had many selections of garden statues, but not any more.
I was lucky that I could purchase the new bird bath shown above at Garden Country in Broomfield, Colorado.
Garden Country was a very nice store with wide selections of flowers, trees, and other garden items.
Besides, the store people were very friendly and helpful.
