for a bit, we had a nice visit. Tuesday is also the day that it got over 100 degrees here. It
was still 90 around bedtime. Clouds had formed to the southeast of us and gave us a lightshow after dark. By the time we had turned in for the night the clouds had moved over us.We woke Wednesday to a warm morning because of the clouds, but it didn’t get as warm. After 7 p.m. big black thunderclouds moved over us and for the next three hours we had a fantastic thunderstorm, lots of stunning lightning, thunder and fortunately
rain. In the three hours that the storm was over us we got over a half inch of rain and quite a few little fires started because of the downstrikes. Thursday we never saw the sun and Friday started out cool but warmed up. Today we are back in the high 80’s. Wednesday I was able to take a walk without limping for the first time in two weeks.
This took way longer than I expected to get better. Yesterday and today I walked a little over a mile. I have some discomfort, but every day it gets better and better. It might be another month before I try jogging again though!I finally remembered to take my camera on our walk this morning and the turkeys were walking around. I guess they had their tails fanned out earlier according to someone passing by us. They have so many iridescent colors in their feathers.
This orange flowered shrub is a pomegranate. The flowers are so vibrant and look very papery.
This picture of our very handsome boy Ian was taken last month, he was in his other Grandparents renewal of marriage vows ceremony and looked very dapper!
We drove around Roseburg a bit on Thursday and that is about all we have been
doing.
