Prairie Sky



Six a.m. on the prairie. I love the sweep of the clouds and the colors of the sunrise. I love the prairie with its wildlife and sea of grain. The storms are exciting and scary at the same time.
All the work and expense of the year can be lost in fifteen minutes of wind and hail. There is great satisfaction in watching the grain harvest. It reminds me of tucking the children into bed at night, safe and sound.
Another week of school physicals is over. Football practice has started and the two-a-day volleyball practice starts on Monday. This summer seems shorter than most for some reason. No one is ready for fall.
I told Wes that there should be pictures of the quilt shop in the store blog. He chuckled. I think it is a beautiful, productive place, so here are my favorite pictures.
