Heat Wave

Jun. 22nd, 2025 03:28 pm
This weekend is the start of a major heatwave. I put on shorts today, and wore them walking to the farmers’ market and then, in a second expedition, to the supermarket. My pale calves contrast with my bronzed arms. I’ll try to avoid using more power than I need to, since increased use of air conditioning may put a strain on the electric system.
Today was a hot, humid day, with intervals of rain. It wasn’t very pleasant to be outside, but there were flowers to be seen, marigolds, for example, and there are a number of crepe myrtle trees in full bloom, with masses of red or pink flowers.

Fireflies

When I was taking my evening walk yesterday, I saw a couple of fireflies, for what I think was the first time this summer, or maybe I just saw the same firefly flash twice. There was also a full moon in a dark blue sky.

And now to start work.
There are colorful flowers on some of the trees, I think crepe myrtles, in a variety of shades. There are also daisies and other non-arboreal flowers lower down.

And now to bed.
