Good day to stay inside with big glass of tea...112? in Phoenix. I put my patio thermometer in the sun for grins and giggles and the needle is buried 2" past 120?.

From about 10 days ago on our way back from Thompson.
Little Limestone Lake showing weather that has been pretty much the norm for the last 3 weeks or so.
Location signage. Apparently there aren't too many actual blue water freshwater lakes like this. Interesting place, anyways. Both taken with the 50mm f1.8 AF-D on the D-810 in program mode.

It's got something to do with the type of limestone that covers the lake bottom. There's some sort of reaction formed by the released chemicals from the stone into the water that form crystals that refract blue light. I did look it up.
There are whitefish and walleye and pike in there. It is a fairly large lake, about 12 miles long and 4 miles wide at it's widest. It would be interesting to fish it.

This sorta says it all (with a little exaggeration).
Just completed my 20th mowing for the season so far.

I lived in Jackson thru my teenaged years...and yes this looks very familiar. 85? and 80% humidity. Most days in Jul and Aug rain about 2PM for an hour then sun. The fog off the ground sometimes would rise to knee high.

It's going to rain forever.

Another day in paradise here along the Gulf Coast.
This is happening right now.

Fall is in the air now (here).
Kids back at school. School buses everywhere. New schools being built like there's no tomorrow.
Still hot but everything is dying, drying up, leaves falling and covering the yard, spider webs everywhere in the yard. It is the peak of hurricane season too. There's several storm fronts around us but haven't developed into hurricanes yet.
I had a co-worker that claimed this was his favorite time of the year. I don't get it.
