Pictures

 Most of this post will be from Wednesday morning- when it was barely fit to go out.  We topped out at 95F here that day, 94.5 Thursday, and it is 94.8 as I type Friday, with a 'feels like' of 105F.  I'll let you know if we go higher, as it is only 230 PM.  Anyway, on to those pics:

We start out at 7 AM, and it is mind-numbingly humid, as the fog on my lens shows here...

Okay, that's a little better

The giant mushrooms at our neighbors are 'loving it'

This one was supposed to show the butterfly that Misty kept nosing up...

Oh, there it is

Now for some varmintage

We weren't the only ones who thought, "Surely it will be cooler early" in error

The trail was actually busy

Ah, a little breakfast

A couple of bunnies

It was actually nice here- a cool breeze came off the river

Even Misty was happy staying longer than usual

The Alumni yard was covered with soap suds from an earlier washing of goose poop off the trail

I just took this to read the side of the van, lol

Yet more suds

One neighbor decked out for Saturday

This is that savage chihuahua that we cross the street to avoid

Our next-doors have bracket fungi

And we have slime mold

We made a further attempt yesterday, to much less pleasant results...

Just as muggy, and hotter

Squirrel at the pool

The river was no comfort

Later that night, I took my Beer Advocate pic of the night, posting it with...

"Grok says Robert The Bruce is for cooler weather, but the world could end before winter; so..."

Later KC surprised me with a "stovepipe" of Dirty Bastard, which he'd never seen in a can before...

So, as I was reading the posts on BA, a friend had engaged another poster over glasses, and drinking the proper beer from the proper glass.  I asked, "Does that mean for my Scottish ales, I should put a kilt on my Grand Cru glass?" Another poster informed me I needed a "thistle" glass for Wee Heavies...

I mentioned I would need to inform Santa about this.  He said he had went through a Wee Heavy stage years back, and still had this glass on his amazon wish list!  While my RTB was a fine beer, the DB was maltier and a far better taste.  

Oh, and we have set the new week's record here at Bobs Bar- 95.7.
