Duchess Corner

Unlike Oklahoma... It has been a little dry here in the southwest valley, south of Bayfield, Colorado. If we accurately measure the rain we have gotten this week, it might make it to over 1/10th of an inch -- maybe more.

It was Friday evening (just before dusk) in the valley south of Bayfield, Colorado when we heard a clap of thunder that sounded rather close. It was loud! As I stepped outside to see what was going on, I felt wet, pelting rain drops falling on my head. The clouds were scattered in the blue evening sky, except for over our place south of Bayfield, Colorado. The rain did not last for very long. Hardly enough rain to measure. BUT... I did manage to catch this glimpse of a rainbow off beyond the trees to the southeast. No pot o'gold, though. Just a few pink rosebuds blooming in the foreground.

As to SW Colorado gas prices... I did noticed our gas prices here in Bayfield, Colorado have finally dropped to #3.399 for regular unleaded. We seem to run about 30-cents to 50-cents higher than you all in Oklahoma and Texas. Diesel at the pump here was $2.999.
