Happy Labor Day from Texas

Got this image here.

It's the Bastrop fire.

Continue to pray for Texas.

Close friend's family in Bastrop... had to evacuate house in ten minutes last night.

We still don't know about their house. 300 homes burned.

Fire danger big in Texas due to heat, drought and excessive winds.

Some good news yesterday...

Texas A&M football season has begun.....  it was still in the 90's for the night game in College Station.

But there was wind!

In fact there were road closures in College Station due to a brush fire.

We have a really TALL yell leader this year!!!

The Aggies did win! Beat SMU!

......and my soon to be born granddaughter attended her first Aggie game.....

She's due in December!
(yes, that's my daughter)

Gig 'em!

And pray for Texas!

Soaker hoses

Henry has been in a bit of trouble lately.

(granddog)

He's been barking during the day and disturbing a neighbor.

Well, the kids are home from school and he wants to play with them....

soon they will return to higher education and he will settle down.

But I sent him a card the other day.... poor baby....

Below is a simple, yet exquisite postcard that Melissa Sabin sent me as a RAK!

I see myself making some of those....

...about the soaker hoses.... don't you just love a soaker hose?

Texas is desperate for rain. I run the sprinklers.... but the big old trees need deep, deep watering.

The tall pine that has been looking like it wanted to die for years.... behind our fence on the greenbelt area....... has finally succumbed. I called TPTB about it. (the powers that be)

Pray for rain for Texas..... not only for our trees.... but for our crops and our herds...

“Anyone who says sunshine brings happiness has never danced in the rain”
