Temperate August

July was hot. Not too much adventuring to report on, yet Daren would tell you otherwise with the track he helped to build. The weather in this blog instance is remarkable.

My tomatoes shrieked and stopped growing, Sue Dog would do her business and then beg to come back in and our a/c bill was over $300. Every day was over a hundred.

Mercy came with August. In three weeks it has barely hit 90. Lots of clouds and showers. For weeks we've had our windows open at night to sleep by. Remarkable. The tomatoes have started fruiting again, in fact second generations of all the pots on our deck are begging to flower. Deer are huge and nosing up closer to our house every day and the leaves are blushing.
