When the alarm went off this morning I turned over and went back to sleep for an hour. Then I played Minions for another hour. We didn't get out of bed until 10. There didn't seem to be any reason to, since it was raining. That meant no mowing.
When I got up I did the pet stuff and had breakfast. The rain didn't last long, but it remained cloudy. We srufed for awhile, and then left about noon. By that time it was sunny.
We went to Dripping Springs to buy bird seed at Tractor Supply. We bought 100 lbs. The birds go through it pretty quickly. After that we stoped at the pizza place for lunch. They let us eat on the deck with the dog. After a leisurely lunch we took the dog to the park. y that time it was sunny and in the 90's. She still did 14 retrieves.
We got hoe about 3. I checked the grass. It hadn't rained much, and the sun had dried the grass out. So I got on the mower. I was planning on doing whatever I could do in 2 hours and quit. I ended up mowing everything that was left to do in a little under an hour and a half. Thar included going a lot of it three time. It took three passes because the grass was so thick and high - over two feet.
While I was mowing some predators showed up. I saw a snake by the archery target. It was dull brown with dull tan bands. It was over 3 feet long. A buzzard flew over to look for things I might have scared up. Finally, a road runner showed up on the lawn between the front door bushes and the Aloe plants.
After that I took a shower and did a little surfing. After dinner we watched movies.
