Lots of pictures









Not much happening out here in the lazy days of summer......I wish I could say "waning" days of summer but I heard on the weather to expect triple digits through most of September. But, they said the days of 110+ are over. Yeah! Swimming, sucking and sleeping has been the norm around here as the pictures show. Kayley is at 7 lbs, 9 oz. so that is good. Drew battled a virus over the week-end with a temperature rivaling the outdoor thermometer but is much better now.

We all totally enjoyed the sweet corn Mark hauled out here. It was simply delicious! We had Sharon and Arne over for dinner Saturday night and had a good visit with them. They brought along a DVD of The Villages in Florida where they are pretty certain to be moving to soon. I must say I hate the thought of them leaving Arizona but I guess after 30+ years of living here they are ready for a change of scenery. I will miss my hiking partner but she promised to come back once in awhile for some of those. :-) Speaking of hiking, the trail and falls (Havasupai) we hiked last April were completely flooded over the week-end and helicopters had to rescue hikers, rafters and campers from that area. Very scary. I am certainly glad we went in the spring and NOT during the monsoon season! I also cannot imagine making that grueling hike in this hot weather...
