No Way

There is no way I could live in a humid, tropical climate.  Would be dead by now.  We are so fortunate to have electricity, fans and a couple window air conditioners.  Early morning the sun was already beaming in.

I have a new groove for this weather.  The first thing I do....turn on the air conditioner and 2 fans in the kitchen  Then I start my regular routine.  Close off the living room, library and bedroom, where it gets outrageously hot.

After chores I picked and ate a few cherries...my weakness.

Also made a pasta salad for dinner.

It was slightly cooler today inside and LW, Gary and I all took long afternoon naps.

After 5 Gary went out and trimmed off the low hanging branches from the willow tree as I am constantly hitting them when I mow.  Speaking of mowing...the grass is growing like crazy and I don't see it getting cut until it cools off.

Gary wanted to go out for a sandwich, so we went down to 58 Main and enjoyed the coolness. We will have the pasta salad tomorrow.

Chores at 8:45.

After the boys had their grain, I rigged their gates so they could go in and out freely.  Put some hay in the front paddock where there was a breeze and brought out Buddy.

Eventually I got Rebel out there.

I put the indoor night light on and will check on them before I go to bed. 

They have always been in at night, but the barn is so darn hot.

The heat advisory is on for about 24 more hours.  Our house really needs to cool off.

Night all.

PS

The bombing of Iran and a President who does not know what he is doing. They had plenty of time to move all their nuclear supplies while T kept messing around.  What a crazy situation.  What was the point?  Really.....   Not going through congress is just one more thing he has done that does not follow protocol and it will be interesting to see if anything comes of it.  The complicit congress needs to be totally replaced with people who care about this country and the constituents that vote for

 them.  Anyone who think what's going on is ok does not have my support or respect.

As for the treatment of immigrants.  We are totally out of control and an embarassment. America can now be known for inhumanity.  And it all has been done so people will not want to come here from other countries.  T and his rich pals are going to notice a big difference in our economy.  How can one man ruin our planet this way?

 

Too Hot For Words

Night all.

 

Here It Comes

And now the temperature is rising. 83 today.  My friends who live in Minnesota and Wisconsin keep sending me their weather.

After chores I picked more strawberries for Carol and Topper as they were supposed to come into the village today.  There were so many Gary picked a second quart.

I also made a giant bowl of watermelon and green grapes so we can have a cold snack available for hot days.

Finn came up at 10:30.  He and Gary continued to work on the gardens until lunch time.

There were enough strawberries for me to make another no bake pie.

We decided to work on the back porch and brought out a different table.  Not so crowded now.

Carol and Topper did not make it so I cut up their strawberries and put them in the freezer.  They will pick them up tomorrow,

Soft tacos for dinner.  Yum.

When it was chore time, Little Wonder said no way.

Tucked the boys in a little early.  I hope it cools off tonight.

The table that was on the porch is now back by the pickett fence and there is a place for our umbrella.

Gary likes to sit there because of the breeze.

Night all.
