| Today's early morning sunrise... |
July is definitely exhibiting the dog days of
summer. My walks have to be completed
before 8:00 AM so that I take advantage of the coolest and most comfortable
part of the day. Any much later, not
only do my dogs hang their tongues, but I think mine is hanging as well.
Quickly, the temps soar into the 90’s and are sunny,
humid and HOT. As the temperatures soar,
my activity level dramatically plummets.
Outside endeavors are forbidden, self-imposed, of course. But, inside is
not much better. We have no AC. Ceiling fans bring only very minimal relief as
the hot air swirls around.
My garden is nearly as dry as Death Valley. I water, as much as possible, in the evenings
just to give my perennials and veggies some relief. I am only trying to keep the plants alive
until our next soaking rain which, at the moment, is absent from the short-term
and long-term forecasts.
When I feel really uncomfortable, I usually take a
drive. My car has AC. Unfortunately, my car is in the shop for a
fuel pump replacement – ugh!
Glenn has been spending a lot of tractor time on
the farms. I understand quite well…the tractor cab has AC.
