Summering It Up


All day we summered it up in the 100 degree temps.  Library.  Lunch at Cobblestone.  Ice balls.  Stop for Combos.  This picture, taken outside the Sweet Tooth, represents about only a minute of sitting outside.  (Note Aaron's ice ball mouth.)  In late afternoon we started across town in snarl-y traffic to get Nora home for her game and Nora and Mike took off for a town east of here.

Then, the wind started to pick up and the temperature started to drop.  100 when I left Steph's house, 86 by the time I pulled out of her neighborhood.  Eighty when I stopped at the fabric store ten minutes later.  Seventy now.

News from the game:  hailing so the team went to a near-by Kroger.  Then, game probably on.  Then lightning and rain.  It's the end of the season, tournament, last two days, probably everyone is ready to be done, but they may need to reschedule for another day.  Who would have guessed?  This wasn't expected, we weren't supposed to have rain for days.  My garden is no doubt thrilled.
