Dog Days!

Heard on the radio today that we are at the end of the dog days of summer. I don't know but 103 has gotten me dogged down.

I don't miss the snow, but sure would like to see the temp drop to the 80's.

I won't be happy until its low 70's preferably mid to low 50's that's when a lot of the lot guys at the shop start muttering about how cold they get everytime the wind blows.

Wow, a little shower came through just a few minutes ago and dropped the temp to around 80. I bet it'll be real steamy this afternoon. Sauna anyone?

I imagine the dog is laying in the shade this afternoon. Too hot to do much else.
