It got so black in the west last evening that I thought for sure we would have a storm. Well, I got less than five minutes of sprinkling rain drops and a view of the storm system rolling to the northeast - completely missing us.

Yes it is supposed to be 105 high again. But on the up side - the forecast changed a bit for next week - there won't be any triple digit temps. We'll see.

96 is still very hot and I hate that your a/c is out until Monday. And you have already been mowing first thing this morning. You work so hard! I wish for you some relaxation and cooler temps on this Saturday in the dog days of summer! Had a friend mention that phrase on the phone this week - which reminded me of grumpy and other family who used to say it. My friend looked it up - the phrase originates with ancient Greece and Sirius the dog star.

No matter what - have a good Saturday COINS!
