JUST PASSING BY

If that massive cloud shed any moisture, none of it fell on my street.

MORBID MONDAY

BIRDS OF A FEATHER

This little birdie was enjoying the new Harbor Arbor the other day.

While this one was eyeing it carefully and with suspicion.

SATURDAY IN SCOTLAND

THE FRIDAY FUNNIES

Well isn't this jolly?

Yeah, I know.

Phoenix set a new record for the date yesterday: 117 degrees!

I think it only got to 103 here in the Central Highlands.

And we still have August to live through.

Nevertheless, SWMBO decided to go out alone to a store for the first time since mid-March.

Actually she only went to the garden shop but she came home with a potted wisteria vine and a trunkload of other heavy stuff for me to cart around to the back yard.

More on that in the ensuing days.

But for now, let's look at your weekly dose of the bright side of life.

O.K. dat's enough uh-dat!

Have a spectacular, toasty, maybe watermelon-fueled weekend, everyone, and always remember to keep laughing.

Here, kitty-kitty . . .

HARVEST

Tomatoes and Shishito Peppers.

HE LIKES IT

Our rent-a-cat, Matty, came by yesterday to inspect the new Harbor Arbor.

As he joined the Blue Cat in a brief catnap, he seemed to be giving his approval.
