It was hot again...
When I decided to wrap things up, it was 95 with a feels like of 103. Fortunately, I was able to skip mowing as it just didn't need it and in this heat that was OK...
Here is a picture of what it looked like. Not much change since last weekend with no rain. Even the hoped for wind hadn't blow away much of the grass clippings, though I guess some of it did.
The driveway grass was still short so there was no need to mow that either. With mowing off the table, for now, I thought about doing some edging but really, the cool weather is coming, it can wait. I watered the things on the porch, watered the fruit trees, and did some weeding in the garden. It was still hot and humid to the point that I could only work in short time frames so I could cool down between them.
About 2:30, I decided to call it a day.
Lows in the 50's by the end of the week. With the first day of Autumn coming midweek, we're getting there.
If it's as pretty as we hope it might be this weekend (the low humidity makes ALL the difference in the world), it will be a good time to finally start getting everything back on track in the yard and garden.
Come back tomorrow to see what I found inside the house...
Definitely wait until the weather cools! Fortunately for us we had downpours this weekend so we didn't even have to make a decision to wait for cooler air. The universe decided for us.
ReplyDeleteWe missed the rain here, thankfully. It got dark and overcast but never rained.
DeleteUh oh ... what did you find in the house? Will look in tomorrow to find out! LOL

ReplyDeleteIsn't it wonderful?
DeleteCome on, 2nd Man, don't be a tease. Spill the beans right now, not tomorrow! Roderick
ReplyDeleteWell now you see why I waited, it made for a fun post. ;-)
DeleteDoing watering and some weeding is enough in this heat. I am sooo looking forward to some cooler weather with less humidity.
ReplyDeleteI hope you are enjoying it!! SO much to do before it gets hot again, ha.
DeleteI think it is a snake or maybe a bear. Wednesday, we start with 70s. I love the heat, so this is sad.
ReplyDeleteThank goodness it wasn't a bear (we don't have those in this area). Well I was going to stay stay cool but I guess stay warm!!
DeleteMercy; it turned out here yesterday but just think, come tomorrow (Wed.) will be 1st. day of Fall. Be nice once them cooler temperatures arrive.
ReplyDeleteNow, what creepy thing did you find? New house pet??? :-)
Oh, that ham & Mac & Cheese looked Fantastic.
Thanks on the dinner. We love Mac and cheese and just a good slice of ham fried in the skillet is always good. I hope you are cool and not too cold.
