Mariah

If our rain was as plentiful as Mariah’s dapples, we’d be in the pink … err, green.





No-haze days

Raven; McKenna Peak and Temple Butte

Raven on a hazy day not so long ago. We have gotten some drips and drizzles, and even with just a little moisture, our world feels the relief.





Pretty little redhead girl

Isn’t Tesora the prettiest little thing going? 🙂

Lesser stallions, beware. Kwana is young … and studly. 🙂

Mighty Tenaz, golden and glowing in the late-evening sunshine.

Hollywood, Shane and Maia

Hollywood and his girls Shane and Maia make any scenery look better. 🙂





The view, usual

Terra; McKenna Peak and Temple Butte

Terra, again, a couple of days after the below photo/post.

This photo illustrates our usual view: Sunshine in the basin and rain beyond the horizon (McKenna Peak and Temple Butte).

The clouds did eventually cover us that evening – it was the evening of the rainbow – and we got a teeny amount of raindrops. As evidenced by the swirly swish of that stunning tail, the wind preceded the rain by hours. 🙂





Appaloosa for a day

Terra

Terra wanted to try on some spots, so she did it the mustang way: Mud splashes! 🙂

Each evening for the last three, Ma Nature has teased us with dark-to-the-east/southeast skies … then some stiff wind, then a few drippy sprinkles. Let me put it this way: Terra’s spots didn’t come from rain-created mud. The ground is basically dry before the sprinkles even stop.

This slow buildup is OK … as long as we eventually get something really, really wet … ?!





The blue we like

Kwana

Day after week after month after month after month … of blue skies does get old.

Kwana’s baby blues, however … never get old! 🙂
