heat wave

we are busy setting records here in dc...damn, it's hot!

summer sizzle

sizzling to say the least...now that the big red oak is gone, there is no shade anywhere in my garden. would not have helped today though: that reading above @ 98° was under thick cloud cover right before the rain...which dissipated before it got to my house. damn.

unusual heat

we have been experiencing an unusually hot june. thankfully, i shot these photos of my garden flowers last week before they all melted today...

hot weather

last year at (about) this time, we had snow: not today, though.
