So, is it cooling down in your area yet? We are not, but it's supposed to be soon. I have to admit I couldn't take it anymore and the other day I went out and bought a window unit...RELIEF...I just couldn't handle the thought of having the temps hit 100 degrees and no air. I wasn't sure I was going to make it through it and live to tell about it. It doesn't cool the whole house but it's enough with fans going to keep it bearable. I still won't put the oven on, the stove top is bad enough.
While in Door County, Jim went on a fishing charter out of Sturgeon Bay to fish for walleye. His charter captain is a retired pro fisherman. Jim was the only one on the boat so they ended up fishing most of the day. Jim learned a lot about walleye fishing, much different from the salmon fishing he used to do on Lake Michigan. These photos Jim took with his phone.
While Jim was fishing I went for a bike ride and put 10 miles on my bike odometer, and by the time we went home I clock almost 20 miles on it. It was so much fun to be biking again. Here I stopped and took a break and walked down to the waters edge.
We kind of cut out our walks, not sure why. Though Jim started running every morning, I have to admit I've been very lazy about doing anything. But since our vacation I've been walking/running every morning. I put on my walking shoes, plug in the i-Pod and now my newest item is the hand weights for working my arms.
Thought I would show you too one of the hills that I have to climb on my walks. It doesn't look big from this angle, but believe me, it is :)
Care to join me tomorrow?
We have a weekend project going, so I'll catch you all later.
Have a wonderful weekend.
good for you, judy! and jim's fishing day sounded really nice!

Good for you. I, too, need to get moving.

We finally have relief in the form of Monsoons. It rained most of the day today (we needed it) and the forecast is calling for storms over the next three days. We'll see. Stay cool!
