What am I looking at? Looks tree-ish to me! All I see is a brown thing in the middle of the photo. My eyes are bad, but not that bad! I see the handsome gentleman below this post and those lobtsers! Yumm-mee!
Can you enlarge it a bit? You've forgotten how old these eyes are! (grin)!
That's me with the shades. Looking like Ray Charles! Cool, but eyeless! I used to have such eagle-eyed vision! :wink:

Summertime Blues
(Eddie Cochran)
Well I'm gonna raise a fuss
And I'm gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer
Just tryin' to earn a dollar
Well, I went to my boss
Who governs me
He said, "No, dice, bud
You gotta work late"
Sometime I wonder
What I'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Well, my mom and papa told me
Now you better earn some money
If one of you is gonna go
Ridin' next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work
I told my boss I was sick
He said, "You can't use the car
'Cause you didn't work a lick"
Sometime I wonder
What I'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Gonna save two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem
To the United Nations
Well, I went to my congressman
He sent me back a note
It said, "I''d like to help you, hon
But you're too young to vote"
Sometime I wonder
What I'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Good one ehBeth,
What's the name of the man who made the tune - "Hot, Hot, Hot" popular??
That's the tune we in the South are whistling. And, it ain't Dixie - Which, by the way, was originally a Yankee tune - from NEW YORK CITY!!!!!!!!!
True story.

She's an "unlearning commercialism" kinda girl with a Buddhist perspective. Not sure how that all ties in with "Radical Enviornmentalism" in the advocacy sense of the meaning, but her views are philosophically interesting.
And the book is really good reading. Highly recommended to all here.
100 degrees expected here tomorrow.
Clicked.
Yes, it looks as if the heat wave is heading E.
Still pretty warm down here.

Closing suitcase, waving to all-

ul,
Fingers, toes, legs, arms and eyes crossed for you.

Don't mess with Franklin on your way across the pond.

Hope you have a terrific vacation!
Yo, Maggie! Hows the weather in Florida?
Talk about a heat wave!!! The Sierra's hasn't seen one day in the past three weeks when temps haven't been 100 degrees or more.
meltingly,
stradee
That is now our forecast too, stradee. Will be outside at 6 a.m. this morning, right after this coffee.
Everyone take care with the heat - don't take chances.

We're hoping for a break in the weather here in Tranna as well. The night-time temps are starting to be a bit more sensible, but the humidex today will be about 105 - 110 F. Yummy
Good idea, sumac and Danon,
Next few days off of work, i've planned yardwork via floodlight.
Stay cool everyone!

I prefer daybreak. Still too hot and buggy in the evenings. Kitties love it though. Hard to get them to come back in when I want to go to bed.
