winterbadgerGood lord! It's really been two and a half week since I went riding? That's AWFUL!
But I couldn't resist. I stayed late at work, got home around 8, and simply HAD to go for a cycle, just around the neighborhood.
Saw a few places where the storms have knocked things down (or where the next one may--with the droughts the last couple of years and now this stormy weather, one starts looking a lot more carefully at one's trees). Heard some summer evening family entertainments going on, cookouts and yard games and the sound of people having fun. :-)
And I was reminded in several places that, if summer is beastly and hot and humind and nasty. when it's not being *too* hot or very humid, there's a charm in summer days (especially evenings) filled with light and birdsong and warm, dusty flowers on hedges. Summer isn't all bad.
But, it's still rather hot here, and it's nearly nine!
