Is this the tropics? I don’t remember moving to the tropics but it sure feels like it. I went outside just now to check but no, it still looks like northern Vermont to me. So what’s with the temps in the 90′s for the past 3 days? And all this horrid humidity?
If I start seeing Spanish moss hanging from the maple trees in the yard I swear we’re packing up and moving to Canada.
No need though as it seems. We’re apparently scheduled to go from mid-day 90′s to all of 72 degrees for a high by Saturday according to the weather report. I sincerely hope so since our “computer room” is situated in a flat roofed dormer that adorns the top of the house right where the sun can beat upon it from noon on. Can’t leave the computers on too long otherwise they tend to get this saggy-melty look to them.
Good news! I not only found the batteries for my old but trustworthy digital camera but I found the camera as well. I even braved the heat long enough to take several photos of our wonderfully quirky (and slightly tilted) house, yard and the surrounding landscape. They came out great.
So where are they already?
I’m terribly sorry folks but I’m going to wait until things cool down a bit as I need to shove them into my editing software, resize, trim, squash, expand and all that kind of lovely stuff before I consider them worthy of my high falootin’ site here. And it’s simply too hot up here to do that now. I think I’ve lost 8 pounds through sweat alone just typing this post and considering that I don’t weigh more than 150 pounds soaking wet I could be in danger of disappearing entirely if I don’t see the downstairs right quick.
Even the cats refuse come upstairs because of the high temps and when that happens you know it’s hot!
See you on Saturday.
Just throw a bucket of water ofer yourself [and the puter]. You’ll be grand. Your photos are more important than a drop of sweat anyway.
Grandad – I gave your suggestion a try. Unfortunately I found that I wasn’t all that absorbent (it did cool me down a bit though) and it got the floor all wet. As far as the ‘puter is concerned, my new machine should be here by Tuesday of next week.
And thanks for the suggestion…
