Well the weather forecasters predicted rain for today and rain it did. In fact it rained all last night and most of today. We are still getting on and off showers now. And you probably know what you get when you mix moderate temperatures and rain. Fog. So what I am sharing with you today is my attempt to capture some of it with my camera phone.
This is the quarry near our house. You can see some fog in the distance and to the right. Later on when it got darker there was a lot more fog but I am not going in a quarry in the dark. Not to mention it was raining at the time.
And now of course we continue our "Amaryllis Watch". It's about an inch taller and I think its getting closer to opening. You can't see it here but the bud is softer and if I try I can open it very slightly.
And before I go here is something I saw today that made me laugh.
Thanks for stopping by.
Until next time...
Construction is a big business where I live. And there are many quarries to prove it. In fact I live just next to one. I cannot see it well from here but it is just a short, literally, 1 - 2 minute dive away. Well I drove to it this morning and shot some photos. Here is one I would like to share with you.
This is one of two local quarries, both of which are limestone. The other one is not in operation anymore. In fact this one was supposed to stop operation many years ago but somehow is still being used. I have no idea how deep they will dig but it sure is one big hole! I can just imagine what this land looked like before digging started. Here is a satellite view courtesy of Google.
