So soon?

The dog days of summer are HERE...NOW, like right this minute. It is 93 degrees and 90% humidity out. We knew Kentucky was hot but wow, it has been like this for a week already. I have kind of switched around our schedule so the kids and I are dressed and out of the house by 8:30 most mornings. We take walks, water the flowers, go to the park, play with water toys, ride bikes, all the outdoor stuff. I try to have us back inside by 11:30 or so to keep Lucy from overheating. We spend the rest of the day hiding out inside until sunset and we can go back outside for a little while until bedtime. We have been trying to get away with just one window airconditioner, but it is just not enough so Bruce is going to put a second in our bedroom this weekend. So, such is living in the south in an old house.

We went out for a long walk after dinner last night and found this gorgeous patch of wildflowers.
