The Sky Today

Sky near Prairie State Park 

Today was pretty humid although not as hot as it has been lately. I drove out to Prairie Park to look for Bison. They were off in the thick brush and I missed them.

 The view out back.

 Under the old cedar tree out behind the school.

On the road back home.

School is about to get rolling again for young people here is SE KS, just a few more weeks and summer will be over. Well the hot weather wont change but the routine will. I saw this quote on another blog today and it made me think of what we learn about as we go through and leave school. Hopefully we keep learning.

" Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty- five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of things."

--Douglas Noel Adams

Regal Prairie

 Last week we had unusually cool temperatures for Kansas. I took advantage of the beautiful weather to take a stroll out at Prairie State Park. Did not run into any buffalo.

I was accompanied on my stroll by a few quail, many dickcissels, both of whom you hear more than see. On the way home I stopped when I spotted this doe in the roadside, she was in no particular hurry neither was I.
