Instead of reaching the 104 degree temperatures of the past few days, we could expect a high of only 99 today! woo hoo
....A "cold" front must be moving in...
Getting up as early as I can to take my morning walk, I pass a few other brave souls out there as we are all thinking the same thing..."Can it get any hotter or more humid out?!?".
The air is so still and oppressive and not much real relief is in sight.
It saddens me to see the parched vegetation all around the area as most plants are shriveling up and dying from the heat and lack of rain.
The lush green of the summer months has been replaced with crispy, brown withering leaves...if there are even any leaves at all.
In the meantime the central part of the country is dealing with horrific flooding and torrential rains.
Oh, if we could only turn the world upside down for a day or two....we could so use their rain and they would certainly benefit from our dry heat....

I know you must be ready for a break in the heat. I have friends who are leaving for six weeks in Minnesota, and they said that it has been cold up there, so maybe you'll get your break.
We finally had some rain today, which is always pleasant.
I thought about you today, we were out riding and job hit with a couple rain drops. Sorry I can't package them up and send them your way.
Sorry - faster fingers than brain. That is supposed to read GOT hit with a couple rain drops.
