Finally Friday - It's Primetime Summertime and the heat is on

The heat is on  in  Texas.  Not excessive - just "normal".  But whew!  
Summertime...An' the livin' is easy - Ira Gershwin from Porgy and Bess

Spray on enough bug spray and hammock time is comfortable at 8:30 pm.  A lovely hang out

The hammock sky view. 


1836  Ralph Waldo Emerson  The reason why the world lacks unity, and lies broken and in heaps, is because man is disunited with himself. 

Peace and Love is needed. Ray and  I attended our local fireworks in person.  We walked to the park about an hour ahead of time. The place was packed - a good band was playing, kids were running about, folks were eating, talking, and laughing.  Black, brown, white - any and all just there to enjoy July 4th. 
Everyone was behaving and having fun. Outdoors. Personal interaction. I actually felt the overall good vibe.  We need that every day. 
We must all hang together, or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately.  Ben Franklin  July 4, 1776.


Are not the mountains, waves, and skies a part of me and my soul, as I of them?   Lord Byron 1812

    1. Lots of air-conditioning, swimming pools, huge glasses of iced tea. Do your outdoor work before 9 am or 90 degrees. We manage. The humidity is what kills me!!
