IT'S AN ILLUSION


Nice photo but it's wishful thinking.

I found this picture of the sky over a neighbor's roof on my camera and vaguely remembered taking it.

But it was a few days ago and if those clouds produced any rain they didn't drop it on me.

We are in the midst of a hot dry period that looks like it's going to last for awhile with the mercury touching and sometimes exceeding the 100 degree mark.

By the latter part of this coming week that's supposed to be down to the low to mid 90's.

Still too hot for the "so-called" Monsoon Season and no real rain in sight.

I know.

Gripe, gripe, gripe.

Actually it doesn't bother me but I seem to have a higher tolerance factor for heat than SWMBO, who is growing more and more testy about my referring to the weather as "balmy".

I made one of my rare visits to a grocery store early this morning and found everyone . . customers and employees . . wearing masks, which pleased me.

Judy doesn't like it when I enter a store so my visits are few and far between.

I can understand people's irritation at the many safeguards but I can't imagine why some take the pandemic so lightly and complain loudly about the removal of "their rights" when they're told they must wear a mask.

So.

Life goes on with tribulations for all of us.

Stay safe, friends.
