The rest can be dealt with James, at least you're okay. I sure hope the power line doesn't come down on your daylilys.

Oh Alex, sorry you've got our muggy heat. Group hug

I'm told we had a heck of a storm here at 5am this morning. I slept right through it, lol. The evidence of rain is all around for sure as blooms are all spotted and roads are wet.

Hurray! Hurray! Hurray! Cindy! You lucked out on that!

We're supposed to get to 95 today, and now they are saying it will be 101 tomorrow. Thankfully, it should cool back down in the the mid 80s after that. I am not ready for all the heat!

Rolling on the floor laughing Already 72 here on it's way to 85, we set up our free standing AC this morning in our living room, it gets so hot because of the large bay window with the southern exposure. nodding
