Hot Day

Thermostats say 93F in the shade here, and humid… Summer is definitely here at last. We got nearly a bushel of cucumbers and summer squash from the garden today; and I lost about a gallon of sweat whilst bringing in the harvest, some tomatoes, and staking up the tomato vines that had sagged to the ground….

Been jumping in and out of the pool to stay cool, but it is hardly helping – the pool water is not really refreshing at 85F (at least not to me), though evaporating dry on the hammock (now moved to the shade of the cherry tree) does help a lot.

I created a “sirens” playlist with female vocalists from several genres and have been enjoying that last night and today… Kate Bush, Nina Simone, Dido, BoA, Eva Cassidy, Norah Jones, Heart, Pat Benetar, Joan Osbourne, Poe, Sarah McLachlan, Chantal Kreviazuk, Suzanne Vega, No Doubt, etc, etc, etc…
