Hi Jil :) We still have the central air going in our house today, but I think we will be able to turn it off tomorrow, which will be nice....hate having to have the house all shut up in the summer; it's bad enough having to during the winter months. Did those nasty storms come your way yesterday? We were hit by the first round, but thankfully missed the 2nd round. Had a tree in the next yard come down across the road, so our driveway became a "turnaround" for everyone :( The county did get the tree all cleaned up and out of the road, thank goodness!
Hope you're enjoying your summer :)
Warmest hugs, from your fellow Michigander friend, Brenda
Hi Brenda,
How nice to hear from you! I was with Tom at the hospital. He was having a CT scan and I watched the storm approach on TV and hoped we would get home before it hit. It never hit. We had a few sprinkles and breezes and not one bit of thunder. It hit down in the Detroit area.
I am glad you missed the second round and glad no trees fell to damage your home.
Hasn't this been odd weather? Winter was wierd and summer so different. I have been lusting after the home grown tomatoes of out family owned famers market. We went there a couple of days ago and they are not even open! I guess all the rain and chilly weather hampered the corn and tomatoes. I was so looking forward to baskets of tomatoes, corn and Michigan's peaches. I don't think anyone has tasted a peach until they have one from here.
Off to walk down by the lake. It has cooled to 75 degrees and it feels sooooo good!
Hugs,
Jil
