Good Bye, July

Last day of July,2021. At 10:20 this morning it was 78 degrees, and it was 100 degrees by 1:00. it jumped 22 degrees in two and a half hours. Since June 16th there have been 44 out of 46 days over 90 degrees. I am SO over this heat! 

Today was also a horse show I was asked to photograph. Thankfully there was a small entry and it was over by roughly 2:30. Between the heat and the smoke from all of the wildfires, I was done in. I packed up and left and when I got home, I unloaded my gear, changed into shorts, let the dog out, put my chair in his kennel and sat with my feet in his pool for about ten or fifteen minutes, brought him inside, and showered and washed my hair. I uploaded photos from the show onto the computer, added the meta data and sorted the photos into files, and that was it.

At 6:35 I’m falling asleep in my chair. Computer is about to be shut down and I am going to bed! 

Tomorrow’s horse show is up in the air; there is a 50% chance of rain and thunderstorms. Might be a good day to stay home and crash on the couch.
