Scorcher of a Day

Today was a scorcher and at one point my car thermometer said 107. Humid as hell, even with the constant 25 mph wind at the beach house. Tomorrow, according to our new friend and keeper of the swimming pool, is going to be much cooler and only 80. I hope so. What's really weird is that I had a terrible and graphic tornado dream last night and then found out today that one swept though Ohio and killed 7 people last night.

This is the last picture you'll see of Danny's cool hat, the aforementioned wind whipped it off his head and dumped it into the ocean, along with several bits of rubbish from our stroller. What made it even more embarrassing was that it happened at a wildlife refuge. That's us, doing our bit for the environment.

Double trouble

Just a few days till the USA: England game, so we are doing our bit

One last little story from today - we went to an ice cream parlour and ate them outside. Stupidly, we got cones instead of cups so they melted in record time all over the sidewalk outside the shop. Sticky fingers galore (UGH) and a change of t-shirts for the kids was in order. The owner came out, did a double-take at the mess and by the time we left was swilling down the pavement with buckets of water and shaking his head, probably muttering "English pigs"
