BLOW THE MAN DOWN!

 Last night we were spared.  The weather was not too bad.
 Around 60 when I went out to the barn....
 It was blowing....
 and blowing.....
 and blowing.
 Don't let those blue skies fake you out.
 The temperature was steadily dropping...
 the sun made it bearable.




 Must have been in slow...did not finish until 9:45.
The kitties were all snug in their hideouts.
 When they came into the house, Seymour headed straight for the dryer.  He must love the warmth.

 Phoebe
 and Gucci sacked out this afternoon.
How the blossoms are staying on the flowers is beyond me.




Is it like this at your house?

 A very unproductive day for me.  Too windy. When I went out to do chores, Masterpiece went down to roll.  He got up easily (now that his blanket is off).  What a good boy!  That bum knee does not help him at all.
 His youthful body has left him, now that he is 33.  He's lost the most muscle in his back end.
Abbe looks ready for a nap.
 
Over and out!
Night all.

PS....on my way to take a shower the sun was starting to set and I just had to get out my camera.  The wind had finally lost some of it's punch.

Hi Lori...I`m so glad you guys are alright. Mother Nature seems to have a TEMPER that isn`t on the kind side. Those tornadoes really are scary and we have never had them ever, just hurricanes. Take care!

It was a bit breezy here today, but very sunny and warmer than it has been.

Sorry it was so brutal for you today. Hoping your weather improves. Your flowers look marvelous. :)

That Seymour is burning right through his 9 lives!
It's windy here too - blew the shavings right out of the stalls and into the aisle.
Love the PS photos - the light is gorgeous.

Nice pics I must admit My Hero was up on the barn roof inside the barn trying to pull down the tin blowing off. Our barn is very high it was one heck of a wind last night.
Love the dryer shot. B

Your photos are absolutely beautiful! Masterpiece is such a sweet soul. Seymour in the dryer is priceless. It has been windy here as well. I hate seeing all of my flowers getting battered.
