In search of texture and answers... or was that distraction?

Just a shot of the old burn barrel, a compost pile of trimmings and part of the empty chicken house.

Pouring rain here now and it's expected the rest of week. We need the rain. Still have a water table deficit.

@kerristephens Thank you, Kerri!

@lindag Thank you, Linda! I think it is, but it's been so dry here for so long. I won't complain. I don't have a paper shredder so I burn lots of paper and that's all I burn in it.
