Hotter Than Heck

Well, it's a tad warm here in Texas but then it is summer and will be for another 6 weeks or so.  I'd still rather be warm than cold so I guess that is just fine.  This morning was actually not bad at all, a little breeze and it didn't hit a hundred until after noon and the humidity is only 38%.  The grass is a little brittle in the back yard; it could definitely use a nice rain.  That probably won't happen so I hauled the hose around and watered the crepe myrtles and small oak tree last night and this morning.  The dogs are enjoying their backyard and being able to dash in and out the doggy door whenever they feel like it.  But then they don't get those walks like they do when they are traveling in the RV.  It's a trade-off I guess.  If you have been keeping up with my friends traveling in Alaska, you will know that they are already seeing signs of autumn.  Don't worry ladies, it will still be plenty warm enough to wear your shorts when you hit the bottom of the lower 48 in September.
