RAIN!

Farmer Ken is in great demand! When we come out to spend time in Grand Junction (AND farmer Ken washes the windows), the rain usually comes. PLUS, we get rain on the farm! I think at this point, there are several on both ends, who would contibute to his leaving the farm at least once a month spending time in GJ!
We had a nice gentle rain the day before yesterday in Colorado and last night a strom came out of Utah and it poured. The farm has seen rain Fiday am (o.70 inch!) and some this morning, so all is better for the time being, until the hot weater sets back in. The extreme fire danger warnings were even lifted here Colorado.
The following 3 photos are the rainbows after the storm yesterday.
The photo below is looking down the valleys of the Colorado National Monument.

This photo is across the valley with Mt. Garfield and the bookcliffs in the lower protion of the photo and the below it is bascially the same view, but larger.


The photo below is our "resident" Gamble Quail. He and his girfriend go right by the office door every morning to go to a neighbors water feature to drink and come back by to send time around the rock pile in the empty lot. (He's sitting on top of the rock to the right of the photo).
