hot time, summer in the city, back of my neck feelin' hot and gritty..
hotter that a match head....

we got triple digits here even in the mountains...hooray for air conditioners..

soon (next week) it will be the 2 year anniversary of the fires that destroyed 200 homes in my neighborhood, including mine.

it rarely rains in the summer here..when it does sometimes it is accompanied by the dreaded lightning.
