About 7:45 on this morning’s walk. It was cool and quiet, though we are forecast to hit 90 today and tomorrow – probably the last very hot days of the summer.

I’m fairly sure this week’s sun and heat is due to the fact that my birthday Wellies arrived on Monday:

I ordered them last week when it was wet and rainy. It will be wet and rainy again. In the meantime they are brightening up my entry way!

The house painting is done. I have rollers and pans and water seal stuff all ready to apply to the front porch – hopefully during today’s lunch break. Finish photos on the weekend!
