relief!

It has been SO HOT here! So hot in fact I broke down and purchased a parking permit. I had been avoiding buying one, choosing instead to ride my bike. But my 8 mile round trip ride had become a sweatbath, resulting in me staying home and working from home every day.

BUT! Summer rains are finally starting!

Woo hoo!! Hopefully the rivers will be up a bit so my sister and I can go canoeing when she visits next week. Yay!

Although the increase in moisture is resulting in horrendous mosquitoes. No, nothing like those at my parents or sister in laws in Austin - but every time I go out with Prairie in the back I get at least a couple bites.
