I actually took these photos last week and just haven't had time to upload them, but the day is very similar today
Some days in July did get pretty warm but for the most part it's been a cooler summer, especially the nights. Was at a rodeo last week and got a good chill because I didn't take a good enough sweater with me and once the sun goes down, the warmth goes away. Some areas north have actually gotten frost already. In a year when the crops are a couple weeks behind normal anyway, an early frost is not something producers want! There were some big hail storms in July as well but luckily my immediate area and around work both seemed to avoid the worst.
The Front Yard - Grass is looking good here after getting to rest for the summer. Can't see bare dirt anymore at least!
The Field Across the Road - The wheat is looking great. All the crops are really. Canola is just finishing blooming and most cereals are really starting to turn now.
The Back Pond - Isn't really a pond anymore. There's no water back there and it doesn't even seem that wet. But there's still frogs there so can't be bone dry. This pasture is also loving the rest period and the grass is doing great (and wildflowers!) Willow and Conn help show off how tall it starts to get down towards the low spot.
