Quiet Sunday

What a beautiful day!  It's 1:30 in the afternoon with only 87 degrees.  It's still cool in the house since the windows were open all night at 57 degrees.  In fact, it was too cold for us to comfortably sit outside for morning coffee!  Upper 90s are in the forecast though so we'll enjoy this while it lasts.

Took a ride through the park and am amazed at how much the park is doing this summer.  All those buildings with new roofs and a small fleet of new white pickup trucks.


The annual plants have been pulled for the summer.  This year our landscapers are trying something new to tackle the invasive weed problem.  They dug out the top layer of dirt and laid down this garden shield.  Next they'll bring in new soil (hopefully without weed seeds) and then plant some summer flowers.  Will be fun to watch.



I was surprised to see this towering dust devil since there is hardly any breeze at all.  It's done by the magic of our intense sunshine.

It doesn't show up much in this photo but it was swirling in an upward stream.  Fascinating to watch.

So many of our readers request more cat pictures.  The furry kids aren't very active in the afternoons.  They need long naps after getting us up at the crack of dawn each day.

Mouse is reminding me that I didn't hang up my swim suit.
