Hot weather can be a pain for outdoor sports, especially if they include riding, hiking, running, etc. If it sounds like I am whining, it's because I am. I always remind myself that if I don't like hot weather, I shouldn't live on the edge of the desert. Boise is the only place I've lived where I dread the heat of summer. Fortunately, the cool mountains are coming into their summer prime. They're a short drive away, and a welcome escape from the heat. It's time to be like a good hippie and get high.
Dog days of summer is an insult to dogs

Lilac Bush
We didn't have many lilac flowers this spring, too many late frosts. Just enough room for the chickens under the bush, but it gets bigger every year. Best place to cool off is down by the river.
The tree swallows love chicken feathers for their nests. For entertainment we toss feathers in the air and watch the swallows swoop in and catch them.
