Summer, Harvest, Storm

It was a hot and dry July and we were looking forward to finishing harvest.  I forgot how quickly things can change.  We were taking pictures of the sky and noticed how fast the weather was changing.  So it was a dash to the house and then the basement and ten minutes later the 80-100 mph wind, hail, and rain had left quite a mark on our part of Michigan.  Very thankful we were safe!!  Our neighbor said she hadn't seen a storm like that in all her eighty years.  We did finish harvesting our last block today although about 75 percent of the cherries had blown off during the storm :(.

Now it is August and the days are speeding by!!  I have several house projects that I'm hoping to tackle once we get the clean up done.  I hope you have a wonderful rest of the week and enjoy each moment!
