What started out as a COLD rain ... turned into wet flurries ...
As the temperatures dropped, my clothes line FROZE ... and our yard became a winter wonderland ...
My "sunny" sunflowers looked sad ... and VERY COLD!
Our trees became green, drooping popsicles ...
And these sad little sparrows certainly seemed to be questioning "what the heck?" ...
Our barley crop, like so many other crops started to bend and buckle under the heavy, wet snow ...
And after getting cold and wet and needing a cup of hot chocolate to warm the soul and hands ... I crossed paths with this beautiful red fox, obviously in a hurry to get home and out of this miserable weather!
Yes, its September and it snowed! No, its not the first time this has happened and likely not the last. It indeed puts a damper on harvest but in the grand scheme of this crazy old world we live in, I'll take the challenge of bad weather over war, disease and painful heart ache! It might have snowed today but we know the sunshine will return! Chins up everyone ... we live in Alberta ... wait 5 minutes and the weather will change!
Wow! Beautiful photos though!
