Just Another Day With Fabgrandma

Out the kitchen window. Transept Canyon

I am not usually superstitious, and that includes being superstitious about Friday the 13th. It’s just another day around my house. I got up, ate a bowl of cereal and drank my Miralax/Tang concoction. I got online and checked my email and Facebook, read some blogs. Just the same old stuff I always do.

The storm is over but the sky is still angry

In the afternoon, I changed the dressing on my incision, and took a long nap. I was awakened by hail hitting the roof of the trailer.  It has been a very dry year here at the North Rim, and I have been worried about the possibility of a wildfire. We really needed the rain (and hail) we got here today. About an hour later, thunder shook the trailer and woke me up again! Then the rain poured out of the sky. It was a really good day for the life giving rain here.

This view of the aspens across the street is always interesting to me.

Dinner was warmed over home made chili from last night. I added a bit of colby cheese to mine, just for a different flavor. A snack sized Butterfinger candy bar rounded out the meal.

I took a short walk outside, just to get some fresh air, and discovered it was really chilly out there. I got some nice pics of the stormy sky at sunset, along with this shot of the aspen right outside my door. The aspen bark is white, with black spots here and there. To me, it is an awesome tree.

I love the aspens. This one is right outside my door. So close, in fact, that we have to be sure to park the trailer a few inches past it so we can open the awning.

    Drove through Heavy rain near Colorado City, then steady rain until the plateau when it just dribbled. Nice to hear it gently on the roof tonight.

    GRCA even dropped the fire ban.

    It was good to talk to you yesterday and I’m glad you got that rain and were safe too from any BAD storms. Was that one of the Butterfingers that Bunni sent you ?? 🙂 Love you my Seester. Hope you and Jim have a good weekend.

    Hi FabGrandma, just a note to say hi, My husband and I met you at the park in July of 2010. We came there on vacation and you were at ranger station at park entrance. You probably don’t remember us,but we are from Ga. and when you saw our address,you said you used to live a few streets over, or your sister lives there in Lithia Springs,Ga. it was nice to see someone from home that far away, I hope you are well and safe. send me an email sometime and let me know about the park (when you have time). I was looking for somethings the other day and found your card you gave us. I really like your page, The pictures are great.,wishing you well and God bless you, your new friend, Joann Garner
