Of all the guys to get “Me Too”’d, Garry was the last one I would have expected.
Yowza!
98 by noon, in Pie Town.
Grader here now after a breakdown on way. Glad I wasn't replacing a drum on that trailer today. The guys looked the part.
Drivers GF did not. A sweetheart from Australia...where did Luke find her?....LOL
Another load of rock and progress.
Clouds built by 5pm and some virga. 5% humidity, and still trying.
Had a dozen antelope come to the water 1st thing this morning. Passing elk on the way in.
Cooled off to 87 and time for a walk with Rio.

80 @ 0900...a cooker.
Buttoned up early, headed to town when the clouds built up.
An hour later there were heavy downdrafts as I closed the gate.
Thunder up in those clouds as I ate lunch.
Temps dropped to 74 and the rain tried again...and for a minute I smelled the smell. Rain came off the roof and I opened the door.
Heaven.
An hour later it was 85 again and I buttoned up again.
The heat builds and it builds the clouds over these high mesas, wringing whatever is in the clouds, to try.
Heavy downdrafts cool the land.
The rain tries again.
Earliest monsoon type rain in June I have seen.
Another full thunderhead just blocked the sun. More thunder.
74 in the house and Rio back hiding from the sound.
Life is good in Pie Town.

A handful of apples growing. Need wraps next year.
Grass still growing despite the heat we have had early.
Pinions loaded with young cones.
Wildflowers starting up.

Looks like the monsoons will start Wed.

Hopefully the gnats will go then.

Glad you and Rio are doing well! I was worried about y’all when I heard about the fires this morning. Hope the rain hits.
It was 103 when I mowed the lawn last week.

Hoping you are in the clear. Another fast, furious fire. Any update?
We are good here.
Hopefully some cooling today.
The 2 larger fires flanking Ruidoso are bad.
1500 structures, over 500 homes lost. So far.
2 dead as of this morning. 20,000 acres , no containment.
Most of the land burnt is on the Rez.
But Alto is gone, as are several small enclaves around Ruidoso.
The main street area along hwy70 is intact still.
Winds have shifted to east and it's pushing rain west.
Rains on the fire areas and flash flood advisories up on burn scars. Los Alamos, Chama, Las Vegas streams.
We could get some showers here in the west today. Clouds building and windy.
Friday looks wet here.
My road guy has lost 2 friends last week. I'm on hold til next week.
Also got call from shed guy and I'm in works after next week.
Unload the new miter saw and base and get it set up next to woodstacks Tarps ready.
Come on monsoons.

Rained for an hour around 3pm. Off & on last night.
Smells great out there.
Herd that bull bugle again just now. He sounded off last night.
Early bird.
Deer tracks in my road. Cool.
Wildflowers showing.
2 years ago was la Nina and monsoons started on the 15th of June. Normal,or was.
Wettest year on record.
Maybe...hoping the rocked road helps.
I'll wash a truck and start building now that the gnats have had their way with me.
Poor Rio's ears.
Flash flood watches up across N NM.
Planning a quick run out to the Luna road to visit HT friends and deliver bison burger.
They have SF coffee and some chile for me.

Getting a few thunderstorms.
Greening up again. Wildflowers going.
Pinion IPPS beetles going on a rampage now around here.
Healthy trees getting hit now too. Full of cones.
Bummer.
Went to Socorro yesterday and picked up a dozen corral panels and 7' T-posts. Riparian habitat cages.
Hot. Muggy. Good thing I left Rio at home.
Luckily the county road in got graded and I made it before a deluge.
My road is almost done..., no drivers I guess.
Got a lot of work done this week.
Went to bed @ 8pm last night, beat.
I got 1 cow tag from e-plus.
Pricey tag.
