Rumors of rain

But nought more than that. My sister over near Moscow, Idaho, has had some, after cooking in her un-airconditioned university office for several days, whilst ferrying kids to soccer, putting out flare ups with one of the older kids; angry kids make everything hotter.
Nice long errand walk, with a stop for some bouldering; got me perked up and stretched out. On the way home, I must have picked the steepest street in the area to get up the ridge, and had a full backpack; almost hiking.
Last minute outing for a little bite and sip with a couple of friends, just in the neighborhood; they tend to be impromptu, which works fine for us most of the time. We traded gardening lore, had a swell dessert.
