Lovely to not be dangerously hot outside.

Which meant, today, that Charlotte and I could have breakfast with Grandma and Aunt Sheree and that we get to take a walk later to see Aunt Frannie (Frances, same as Charlotte’s middle name) and Aunt Patti.  We we get to see Uncle Joey later, too, and Uncle Tom and Aunt Heather and Auntie Wu and Grandpa this weekend.

I’ve never liked hot weather.  But 100+ degree heat indices (and even temperatures!) are dangerous for a baby and have kept us indoors a hell of a lot this summer.  It’s even very hot when we do to the farmers market on Saturday mornings very early.

There’s escape this weekend in the form of temperatures in the mid-upper 8os, less humidity and, well, the sheer desire to go the hell outside!

Grey June days.

….always remind me of summer 2002, when I lived  in Massachusetts.  June is lovely there, especially early on.  I remember frequently wearing a sweater there in June.  It’s a nice, relaxing atmosphere today, before Baltimore’s heat and humidity set in.  I’ve been enjoying our window fans at night.  I’m helping with a mural today, so I get to be outside, too.
