 GingerSnap! has to be involved in everyone's business - checking out my son's lunch/supper bag.

 We thought we could go for a walk before this came our way - no, we were soaked.

 A big storm all last night - 3.5" of rain, lightning, hail and hight winds.

I was interrupted while trimming celery from the garden - GingerSnap! needed a head scratch.

 So many birds down the road (we rarely see birds on the wires).

 The only photo I took today was a progress shot for Ravelry of a sweater I am knitting from yarn I spun during TdF last month (a Ranunculus knitted with a strand of commercial mohair/silk yarn).

 I heard a noise up in the tree and assumed it was a bird - no it was GingerSnap!!

 Sunrise - storms around, lots of thunder, but only a few drops of rain here.

 The field (canola this year) that we live in the corner was sprayed today - incredible to watch, crop duster pilots are something else.

 Today I washed a fleece I have had in the garage for a while - so it is about time! This is the first soak. The plan is this winter I will comb, dye, blend and spin for a sweater.

 Sitting and knitting while I watch the little chicks free range - they stick close to home.

 Happy National Cat Day! This is about as good as it gets with these two - Miss Maggie tolerates GingerSnap! when they are waiting to be fed (he just wants to smell her and she wants nothing to do with him).
