It is way too hot and humid to write much today. I’ve been psychologically sweating even when indoors. Here in NJ, schools are closing early due to the extreme heat (near 100 degrees).
I’ll be spending the evening at my son’s baseball playoff game trying to make sure he stays cool. If they win tonight they advance to the championship game on Saturday so lots of pressure on him tonight (I kid).
Everything is drooping outdoors even after all of the watering I’ve done the past few days. We’re expecting rain into the weekend so all will be good soon enough.
I’ll leave you with a few photos I’ve taken this past week:
ooh. lovely photos!
as for the heat, welcome to my world… this is why i don’t garden (vegetable or flower) and only try to keep a few pots of blooms/plants alive each year…
The amazing Mary Markowski has gotten my kiddos gardening! Me…a past FFA President is not one for the garden these days! LOL But even in Florida it is much too hot! Came home today to some very droopy plants!
Great photos. You have a great camera and an amazing eye.
Good luck to your son and his team!
Congrats to your son and his team. I hope the weather cools soon. Love all your photos, the peony especially!
Why are the schools closing early? Aren’t they air conditioned? Hopefully, you’ll get some of our rain. We’re in the same heat wave and it’s a killer, except one place – my classroom is always freezing!! Your flowers look great! :o)
Good luck to your son and his team! This is our 21st day at or above normal highs … HOT!
Schools closed early because it was near 100 degrees?? Wow, I don’t think I’ve heard that before. Snow, ice, etc., yes, but heat? What, they don’t have A/C?
