Guess what -- just like the rest of nation,
Nebraska has been baking the last several weeks.
We always have hot and humid summers --
but usually the hottest temps do not hit until August.
| Starting out -- 10 AM -- 97 degrees! |
Welcome to July this year!
But . . . whenever I start to complain whine about how HOT it is,
I think of winter and freezing temps and snow and ice and messy weather
and that snaps me right out of it.
As you may or may not have read, my sister and her daughter were in town recently!!
They live in Florida -- in hot, sweaty Florida.
Nebraska was hotter and more humid than Florida -- go figure!
| Finding a little bit of shade! |
But a little thing like 100 degree temps and a heat index of 110 was not
going to stop us from having fun!
No sirree bob (we say weird stuff like that in Nebraska)!
We were going to HAVE. SOME. FUN. or
melt trying.
| Amy, Grace and Maddy. Think I had a "6" on this hole -- oy!! |
So, we went and played some putt putt golf! Even starting at opening time of
10 AM was H O T! But, I think I actually played my best game --
Grace and I both got holes-in-one!
She may have had two, but she is on the golf team at her junior high, after all.
And even though it was so hot and so humid,
Maddy said it was the best day of her life -- spending it with her cousin!
After such a rousing game (somehow I came in last even with my best game),
we headed out for tacos and met Mr. Tennis there.
Grace loved seeing him on his motor scooter!!
(He had just popped a peppermint into his mouth
so that's the reason for that silly expression!)
