Where has the summer gone?
I know every year I ask the same question. I just can't believe we are already in August. The stores have had their "Back to School" items out for a month now and NFL training camps are in full action. Seems like summer gets shorter and shorter. I'm looking forward to fall only because of the cooler weather and football. Still can't believe it's almost over!

Missed it by that much!
I know I'm sounding like a broken record, but we missed a storm -- and a lot of rain -- by a few miles. Folks in Wisconsin are getting hit by a LOT of rain -- over five inches in many places! We can see lightning in our northern sky, but it is still dry here and the forecast for Friday is sunny and 95°.
What a difference five months makes!
These two photos were taken from a nearly identical location on my deck. The photos are of housing vacant lots immediately south of my house. The "winter" photo was taken February 22 and the "summer" photo was taken July 22 -- five months apart. It's currently 90° outside with high humidity and the "winter" photo looks oddly refreshing to me. Quite a contrast!
