AKA....."What SHOULD have been our tea and craft day but Daddy went out of town and it was too.goshdarn.hot." Instead we did homeschool lite then went to Walmart and picked up a small pool to cool off in. So we enjoyed nature outside in the small pool. And stayed cool.
But we did have fun watching the Cormorant in the lake obviously fishing then watched him waddle up on to the grass, spread his wings and bake in the sun to dry his wings. They are flexible, goose sized birds that do not have water repellant feather so it must dry its' feathers by spreading its' wings while perched upright.
We also picked some wildflowers from the water's edge to bring indoors along with some yummy smelling jasmine. Other than a trip to the library to do some returns, pick up new books and my reserved copy of Deep Dish by Mary Kay Andrews... we just stayed cool.
Hope you chilled today as well!

Yep, we were chilled all right. Our weather has been cool and damp this week. At 60 yesterday we can only dream of a day we'll need to cool off in the water....
