[Casa Escarlata Robles Too]

I knew "if you build it they will come".

I had new rain gutters installed last Friday and it must have been

an omen to the rain gods.

Not much but it wet the bushes and cleared off the dust.

 

Maybe more soon?

I predict it will start snowing hard. I dropped the snowblower quick hitch hydraulic cylinder off at the shop for rebuild to fix a leak. Can't clear snow 'til I get it back.

Yeah!

We need this rain.  I was so happy last night when it started coming down.

Nice color.

My Japanese Maples usually have nice color but the leaves are

just drying ,turning brown and falling off. Not much color this year.

A beautiful sunrise and a nice light rain this morning.   Snow on the Elkhorn peaks, the larch, aspen and cottonwood trees are a wonderful golden.  I’m at peace.
