Long weekend...


It's really quite hot
and humid
in our part of
New England.



We took a long weekend
seeking
cooler spots.
There are
Canada geese
in the middle of the pond.



There is
something about
water that feels cooler
even when it isn't.


It may cool off in the next few days. Despite the fact it is green and lush in the photos, we are lacking rainfall. The grass is crunchy under the feet and trees are turning brown and dropping leaves.

How is your summer going? I hope that you are staying cool. Of course, some readers are in the middle of winter and wishing for summer warmth! Right now, I just wish for a little rain to cool and refresh.

As always, in whatever weather,



enjoy the day!

We are hot and humid here as well. We did get some welcome rain this afternoon, and I sat and listened to it as I crocheted doll clothing. Very comforting.

We were hot with crunchy grass last week. We got several nice rains and a couple of storms in the last few days. The garden is responding to the water, tomatoes, peppers, okra, squash, yum!!

It is hot and humid here in Des Moines, Iowa USA too! But this makes the tomatoes red, I hope!!

Hot and humid...just when I think I can't last another second, the nights cool a bit.

We will have to look into the movie, Lost in America. There had to be a plan, so RV'ing we will go...without giving up corporate America at this time. Still, we could sell the house, you never know.
