Is summer finally winding down?

 We started off August with haircuts.  We've used our Flow-Bee for over 20 years now and are very happy with it.

The 7th of Aug we were surprised to see a quail chick on our patio.  He seemed to like my yellow crocks and whenever I went outside he would come running to see me.  We have no idea where he came from as we never saw a mama.  We didn't see him again for two weeks and then, sadly, I found him stuck between the water pipes on the driver's side of the MH.  We certainly aren't having much success with quail chicks.

The intense 110º heat has lessened some and we had two nights where it rained a little but we didn't even know it until Dawn told us it had rained!

August is a birthday month with our DIL, LaTia first, then Calvin our first great grandson, then Milli our first great grandchild and lastly Larry.

Our grandson Alex who is moving to MO in Sept.

Calvin has moved with his family to Portland, Oregon so we didn't get to see his birthday party.

We ended the month with a wind storm and then much needed rain that was actually measurable.  It brought much welcomed cooler weather!!
