Autumn that is. Throw in a splash of monsoonal rainfall and the autumn season is on for reals. Saturday October 9, 2021 and it's raining buckets of wet a way out here behind the Zion Curtain. Rain falls on the lower elevations and SNOW is falling up the mountains. Elevation is key to the snow crap. This time of year it's still mild enough for rain to fall but up in the mountains where elevation is everything, snow and snow and more snow. The highway guys closed the Mirror Lake Highway on account of snow. That happens this time of year. It is a relief to see the rain. Bless the rains and not down in Africa. Bless the rains right here in about to be a river city. Because it is raining that hard. Couldn't even get the dog to go out the back door for a morning pee. Dog looked out the door and said "I'm not going out there it's raining." Dog turned around and headed back to her bed. Yes my dog is a 'her' and she doesn't buy into any of that nonbinary gender bullshit. My dog is a lady and don't try to convince her otherwise. She'll bite your dang face off but she's gonna start at your ankles and work her way up. You ought to see what our dog does to the neighborhood rats. Well and mice, birds, balloons, and she'd really tear up squirrels IF she could catch one. The squirrels are smart enough to know when to taunt the dog and when to beat those little squirrel feets and head up the nearest tree. Our neighborhood squirrels are pretty smart and pretty dang funny too. Anyway that's all I've got for this here Saturday and now we'll move on to the machine art portion of today's program.
