Cooling Temperatures

So hard to believe that August is only three days away!  I say it every year - where does the time go?? 

The days are getting noticeably shorter; it’s still dark when I wake up at 5:00 and sets at around 9:15 pm… I hate that. On the up side, earlier sunsets sure cool things off a lot faster, and with this brutal heat wave we’ve had since June 12th, the cooler temps are most appreciated.

When I checked the National Weather Service a couple of hours ago, the forecast for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week was 85 - Tuesday and Wednesday are now 86. That’s more typical of this time of year, and a damn sight better than 97!  We’ll see how much that changes in the next few days…
