Hot and Sticky

Today was Hot. In fact, it was good old Northeast Missouri Hot and typical August Fare. That means the Humans were hot and sweaty. We 3 C's try to be smart about such things. I did hang up Clothes to dry on the line in mid Afternoon. But mostly we stayed inside, rested, did inside chores, and explored opening and shutting Windows as the pattern of Sun and Wind changed.

No, we did not have our Air Conditioning on. Richard even canned 21 Quarts of Tomatoes. I really don't like Air Conditioning. It just doesn't seem quite right. We try to use it as little as possible.

I hope some day this little House has a better plan for keeping it cool. The Mature Shade Trees will take a while. They are likely to be enjoyed more by the next Generations. We are replacing the Windows. Window Treatments will be on the to do list soon.

The low for Tonight is expected to be mid 70s. Out in the Garden, the Tomatoes, Corn, Melons must be jumping for Joy. We jump for Joy at those possibilities too.
