hot weather relief....







92 degrees.
sound hot??
try actually experiencing that IN YOUR HOUSE!
i did & lived to tell about it.(all my New Jersey/Michigan friends & family are rolling their eyes right now)
you have to know, we just don't have heat like this everyday. maybe once a summer, we get a day or two of it but FOUR days??? enough already. (when it's freezing and i'm complaining about the weather, remind me to buck up, deal with it, this too shall pass).

since i wasn't about to spend another, crabby (and i was terribly crabby!) hour in this OVEN i call a home, i packed up the boys and headed to Berthusen park for an afternoon 'hike'. wouldn't ya know it, about 13 degrees cooler. oh, such bliss.

we scoured the trails to find the one that leads down to the rope swing (compliments of nate heilkam). the water was cool and the bugs were out in full. but we had water bottles and nothing but time.....
