It is hot here. I miss the variability of late fall and early spring.

I think 18 of the last 20 days in Raleigh have been 90 degrees or more with dew points regularly in the low 70s, sometimes reaching 77. Probably not as disgusting/intolerable/oppressive as what you've got in Texas but it's been pretty unpleasant here. I'm ready for fall.

We've been hovering around 100 to 101 for the last three weeks. Normals are closer to 93-94. We may finally be catching a break, looks like the forecast for the next 10 days is 98-99.

It is hotter than Hades here on the island, as well.

It's not too bad on Emerald Isle. We're generally in the upper 80s and low 90s.

It's hot here too. I have spent the last two days mostly inside. I have been canning black berry jam and tomatoes. I have canned 45 pints of jam. They make
wonderful gifts.

LOL! Come to tailgate. I'll give you some.

[Very Duke Blue]

OK, black berry jam coming.

The black berrys have slowed down, thank goodness I have Todmore batches for tomorrow. I am so ready to be done with thcm. Today, I froze okra canned tomatoes. I haven't missed a night of making dinner. I'm getting tired.

Summer doldrums? Or is the honeymoon over?

Finally, rain, it's the first we have had in a month. So far, we have 1 1/2 inches. That's enough for now. It appears to be slowing down.

Rain does a lawn good.

The rain is a big help for out corn crop. It should be ready by the end of the week. We have seen not seen any action of squirrels in the garden and very little in the yard. I give Mikey most of the credit of keeping them out. Wish us luck.
