A Colorado Summer
On the first day of June in 2022, it snowed so hard we lost power for 10 hours. We got a foot of snow. Then, we had a warm green summer with plenty of rain. And then today, on Friday September 9th, the temperature plummeted and it was nearly too cold to walk the goats. Tomorrow (Saturday September 10th), the forecast calls for rain and a high of 50F. Low of 43F. So, I think it's safe to call the summer officially over. Technically, it looks like summer is supposed to run from Tuesday 6/21/2022 to Thursday 9/22/2022, so we've got roughly 2 more weeks of summer, in theory, anyway. Lord.
Jennifer said she wanted to feed the chipmunks at the Phoenix mine, so I said "Come on". We'll leave here at 4:30 p.m. because the mine closes at 5:00 p.m., and that's the best time to feed them - when everyone else has left. Then we have the place to ourselves and I honestly think that the chipmunks and the ground squirrels recognize me when I walk up to start feeding them.
