Monday August 7th We are in the monotony of long hot summer days. The forecast doesn't change. Rain is not in the long-term future even. Just day after day of hot, dry, oppressive temperatures. So, as is my normal habit come this time of year, I am hibernating as much…

It's Saturday Not much to say today, other than... It's hot.
It's Monday After a way too hot weekend... With more time than I care to admit spent on the road... I'm hiding from the heat inside my home. As I am sure many of you are aware, I'm a big fan of the artwork of Gary Myers. My entryway shows…
It's Thursday Today I just visited summer. I walked out our front door... I looked left and I looked right... Then I returned into the house of perpetual spring. With summer officially here this week, I am now entering my reverse hibernation. I've never really hidden from the cold, but…

Friday And the rains continue... It's a pleasant 73° on the front porch this morning. And yes, the humidity is high, but what do you expect when it's raining. And the range just keep on falling. We had a small murder of crows on the front on yesterday. I've been…
Monday The temperature this morning is almost 80°, the humidity is above 90%. And with all that being said, my allergies are acting up. Par for the course for July and Texas on the Gulf Coast. I see the business across the road is not giving their employees a holiday…
Independence Day Sunday Another warm and humid morning. Overcast with high clouds. Not a breath of a breeze. The weather sure not right for celebration. It has that Sunday quiet working. When you had independence day to that Sunday quiet, you get a lot fewer traffic sounds from the bypass.…
Saturday The sun was just peeking over the horizon as I stepped out this morning. At 77 degrees it wasn't too summery to feel oppressive. It's rather quiet out this morning. The house is sleeping... Along with everyone in it. But the coffee maker has made coffee and I feel…
Thursday The sun is out this morning, and it's warm, and it's humid. There's not much breeze blowing. But, the birds are singing. The cicadas haven't woken up really. And I just pulled the garbage bin to the road... The weather pattern this last week has been strange. Blue skies…
