the storm cloud that completely engulfed us this evening on our way home. we stopped at a rest area until the worst was over. it made me think of the times i traveled with my mom, dad and sister cross-country. we ran into similar storms in the desert with black clouds shrouding the road ahead and lightning streaking across. my mom would make us turn off at the nearest dilapidated motel with bats in the trees and frogs in the pool.
we made it back to a hot city. 86 degrees right now. i guess that's better than the 90 degrees it was at 11 pm. it's nice to be home but i wouldn't mind jumping into a pond right now, especially after unclogging a bathtub, cleaning up cat poop and vacuuming up dust and cat hair!
Ah, you are home! I thought you were still visiting somewhere. So you cleaned your own apartment? I thought it was the cottage you stayed at . . . Stay cool! There are so many excessive heat warnings all over the place.
ReplyDeleteWell, we cleaned the cottage too :). I know, this heat just doesn't want to go away.
