I wish I could tell you tat was rain on the mesas, but it is dust being blown by horrible winds! I did not have fun taking these pictures! This is the second day of the really high winds and dust, dust and more dust! As you see, work goes on, no matter what!

Wowser! Sorry to see that dust & wind. We have had terrible winds with dust, and now lately with Smoke. Hope it clears up for you. No smoke today here, but Fires are still going in SW area of NM, with another small new one in that are just started today. Hope they get that one out real quick.

Thanks so much for your great comments, Eileen,
Tim, Gil X 2, Heidrun and Kelley!
Thank You, Approvers for the AC and the VIP!
It was an awful two days, but I finally got to
head home yesterday (Sunday). It was still
windy, but not anywhere close to those two bad,
dusty days.

Brutal is a very good word for it, Lori! I
saw three of them fly when I pulled in, and
our tenant said he saw 6 lined up on the fence,
but I wasn't here when he saw that. Rats!
Mama and Papa must have been giving flying or
hunting lessons. Sorry I missed that! I'll keep
looking.

Oh, I'm sorry you had this, too! Wind can be
trying enough, but with all that dust, it is
a nightmare! Thank you, Sharon!
