Dog days of summer: Dog Days is the name for the most sultry period of summer, from about July 3 to Aug. 11
Here we are, sliding into August and we haven't really seen puppy days, let alone any dogs and I, for one, have been fine and dandy with that! Early summer was damp and green and cool, but perfect-cool, not cold-cool. Out here in the country, the wildflowers/weeds were in constant bloom until about just the last 10 days or so...it's been a gorgeous summer so far, unusual for eastern Washington. Usually, July is hotter than heck--brown and dry in rural areas.

Ninety degree temps for a few days this week and last, and then an overcast, beautifully cool, low 70's day sneaks in (today). Perfect!
