Good evening Illinois, Jim, Shaun, Pat, John, and Don!

Today was a pleasant 77° day, was humid but nothing like it has been last week.

Got the grass mowed and hosed off the deck, damned birds!

I haven't seen many humming birds this year. Saw more this Spring. Must have been migrating to Canada.

We need rain in the worst way. Back yard has started to turn brown.

My lawn is turning brown too and will likely kill some of it driving the truck over it to get to the shop..Humming birds were late getting here this year for some reason, everything seemed late...

That house that blew up Friday evening was arson to coverup a burglary. Two cats died in the fire.

They're calling for rain on Thursday. The day that we have to attend a funeral for my daughter's FIL.
