Laundry Day

Another beautiful day in Arizona. I finally got busy and tackled the laundry. It was so nice that I set the drying rack up outside the door and hung the first couple of loads outside. There was enough of a breeze that everything dried very quickly.

The hummingbirds kept flying by the windows acting like they were hungry. We hadn't seen them before today, but they were incredibly persistent. Forry got the little feeders out of the car and I made some sugar water. The minute I filled the cups, the birds were right there to eat. Last year it took a couple of weeks for them to find and use the feeders.

The grackles showed up a couple of days ago as well. There were none here when we arrived, but now we hear them walking along the roof in the morning. They keep pretty busy along the path in front of the RV. I don't know whether they are eating seeds or finding bugs.

We had a bit of a commotion on the other side of the fence tonight. There were a couple of cows going up and down and bellowing loudly. Of course, it all happened after dark, so who knows what had them all excited. One of our neighbors had a pretty strong searchlight, but all he could do is highlight the cows as they came by. It's Open Range country, so who knows what was going on.
