Finally feels like summer

Most of the summers of this century--in this area, I mean--have been cooler and wetter than the summers of my youth.  The past few days, though, have been hot and sunny, and the grass is starting to dry out.  It actually feels like summer now.  It's a bit nostalgic.

The good news is that the lack of rain means more time to do things outdoors.  The bad news is the potential for increased stress on plants.  But that's the way of things.  Everything in life involves a trade-off of some sort.  Each of us has to weigh our options as best we can and make the choices that seem to provide the lowest cost-to-benefit ratio.

2020 sucks so far, but the suckitude won't last forever.  Hang in there, folks!  This too shall pass.
