It's HOT !

There is really not much to report on around the Central Florida area. It is simply to hot to get up to anything good or bad for that matter. I have yet to understand why, the older we get, the less we can tolerate heat and cold. As children temperature seem never to be a factor toward our daily activities. Now I shiver at anything below 60 and wilt at anything over 80. The doctor will only say, "Well at your age..."

Mel was here today and painted a bit. Yes, we are still painting. Between the excessive rain and the subsequent humidity; painting is taking awhile. I had planted a tomato plant in a five gallon bucket. It was doing quite well for a month or so. Then between the heat and the high winds from afternoon storms, I am harvesting far fewer tomatoes than anticipated. It is nothing like the bounty Paul and Cheri are reaping from their Avant Garden. Way to go farmer john!

Hell must be freezing over because we (via Beryl express) finally received communication from Craig (well - from Michelle on behalf of all I suppose). I am somewhat sure that this was the result of intensive interrogation tactics by Janet. She's so delicately natured and all.
Do you think this will be our communication ration until the Holidays? Hopefully not. (Maybe I should POLL that.)

Well, time to go. A special hello to those down under. We haven't heard from you all in some time now. You can leave comments here if you'd like.

Love to all. C & R
