Dust devil.

Now you see part of the reason for all our current haze. That's a dust devil, and we've had plenty of those lately, but we also just get plain old walls of dirt driven on the winds. Even worse is the smoke; the west horizon hasn't been clear in a week or more. And still no rain in sight.

The other kind of rain has fallen, though, and so I'm busy getting this thing off my desk and getting several other things caught up today. We are blessed, and profoundly grateful for it. Now, if we could just manage to convince the literal rain to fall in the proper season, the land could heal, too.

I did get four new works posted yesterday: the two arrow lapel pins (one of which is already spoken for), the cuff, and the ring (yes, it turns out I was right about that; the barrette pair will be a while yet). The ring is part of today's feature at NDN Silver; the remaining arrow pin is fabulous; and the cuff? The stone is something really special; go read about it. Also, if I'm really lucky, I'll also have another gemstone bead set (or maybe two!) before today is out, but I'm betting that tomorrow is more likely (at the earliest).
