On July 9, there was more rain in the early morning. After everything dried out from the rain, I headed out to the garden. I picked tomatoes. I spotted this cutie on a bean leaf.

The sunset was gorgeous over the house.



We headed out to hunt hornworms. A toad was sitting on the steps.

On July 11, I harvested the dried beans before we got more rain.



On July 12, as I headed out to the garden to pick tomatoes, I saw a butterfly on the side of the house.

I picked more tomatoes in the morning.
While in the garden, I took a picture of the Alpine strawberries.

I made tomato sauce while it rained outside. We had a double rainbow. The top one is very faint.


The sunset was interesting.


On July 13, I found this butterfly sunning on the side of the house.

I picked produce to take with us to Jeanne on our trip to Colorado.

So much rain, but it left a beautiful rainbow.

During the day, we packed to go to Colorado. We loaded the car with everything that we would not need in the morning.
On July 14, we brought in the pepper buckets and other outside plants.

With that done, we headed off to Colorado.
