it's the first time i've seen fungi in trees around here in the city. this tree is right by the parking gate at the back of my apartment building. i didn't know that pesky squirrel photobombed my shot until i uploaded the photo to process it.
i had an early walk this morning; it was 25 degrees that felt like 30. halfway through i thought i wouldn't make it to my usual end at the mall. there was a bus and i decided to go to a grocery store and get paper towels. the bus was air-conditioned and if it wasn't crowded and i had a seat, i'd have gone on a joy ride. but i had my pig game so i thought i'd just go back home.
today we hit 33 degrees again; there was a thunderstorm at the lake in the early evening. i put on my big girl pants and re-installed my a/c then i sprawled on my rocking chair, read a book and had a nap.
five more working days and i will be an official retiree!
