Lots of company this time of year. My brother-in-law had a cancer removed and needs no further chemo or anything–we are grateful for that. Hot hot hot hot humid humid too; too hot for even pool parties i refused. We were singing (ahh) Baby its Cold outside to say cool and watching this. 
Try it.
Last night got great storms (i love a storm) with high winds, hail and down-pours. The temp dropped some 30 degrees. Thank you Thank you. About 700 people lost their electricity. The trees, ohhh the trees. Large branches put downward, bowing, twisting dancing shaking it out, then thrown back upward in multi-layered winds. Its sounds were furious beautiful, friction in the leaves. A bit like looking at giant masts on a huge multi-mast ship from inside the Captain-ess’s glass enclosed quarters. Everything in front of me, a storm tossed sea in the sky. The sails of clustered leaves were bending at their masts in all compass directions. It got a bit sea sick to watch it : ) but it was exhilerating too!
