Default Hidden in the passion vine

It's been too hot to shoot much around here, 100+ everyday ;-( Went out to try some macro shots on my passion vine, and found this ;-) scary LOL



THe passion vine doesn't seem to mind the heat too much, everything else is starting to die back, due to the drought, but these guys keep on blooming.



This yellow cutie, looks kind of tired, leaning on the post.



Sun coming up this morning, over my back pasture.

Thanks, I don't normally like blue eyes on a dog (or horse for that matter) but hers have kind of grown on me ;-) I guess because they are so blue.

Oh man this heat is killer. I told my husband last night, if I would have wanted this kind of heat, I'd have moved to Arizona! This is unreal, and not even in to the hot part of summer yet

Well I imagine I'll be having drought pics to post here soon ;-( Everything is just drying up and wasting away. Hate to say it, but I'm actually hoping a hurricane or some kind of tropical storm starts cookin' out in the gulf! This is just miserable.
