Monday’s rain a week ago showed .85 in my rain gauge. On Friday ML got another drizzle that settled the dust to ease the drought conditions in this part of the state. Saw a large flock of 20 or more turkeys (the most I’ve ever seen in the wild) near Big Lake Wednesday morning. . . I hope everyone interested in astrology had an opportunity to view the harvest moon which was full and orange last week Tuesday. That brings to mind the northern hemisphere Fall Equinox – which was last week Wednesday. It’s one of two days during the year when day and night are most nearly equal everywhere on earth. There will be less daylight than nighttime each day now. . . that is, until March’s Spring Equinox. . . the leaves are beginning to show their fall colors and that means it’s time to take a drive in Wright County and take in all the beauty that nature provides each year about this time! This may be a little early, but that’s being blamed on the extremely dry conditions.
