Cooler

For the past week or so we've been 'enjoying' a heat wave.  Well, no, that's not true.  We've been enduring a heat wave.  Temps up above 100 degrees and of course Minnesota doesn't understand the concept of a 'dry heat'.  Miserable stuff.
Until last night, that is.  We had some thunderstorms roll through and it immediately became much cooler.  We lost twenty, twenty-five degrees in a couple of hours.  The change is heavenly. 
Today we had the door and the window open.  We were outside playing at a park.  We could simply relax.  The weather didn't seem like something that must be beaten at every turn. 
I could still use a good five or six days of overcast and drizzle but, for now, this is fine.  Better at least.

We had a break on the 4th of July (thank God) and then it was gross again on Thursday but Friday & yesterday were pretty nice. I wouldn't mind a drizzly day either....
