Some like it hot

When I went outside first thing this morning it felt almost, hum, dare I say, refreshing.

Would you believe me if I told you that the high barely got to 100 degrees and that there were clouds in the sky all day?

I even felt a little chill when I stepped into the pool for my morning lap swim. The water temperature was 80 degrees not bathtub warm.

Watch out sweet potato vines! Your time to thrive will soon be gone. Thanks, however, for liking it hot and bringing a certain lushness to our long, hot summer.
