The Return of Summer

Well!  That faint first hint of fall we thought we were detecting has been incinerated by the return of summer.  It's supposed to hit 95 tomorrow.  Most people in the GPNW do not have air conditioning in their homes, so 95 is really uncomfortable.  We rode today and I just died, apparently I no longer can cope with heat and humidity.
This is the tree next to our site, those are mushrooms growing on the bark.  We have not seen that before.


My geranium is still blooming.  Is it not lovely?  I'm using the grill cover as a backdrop.


We saw this car coming back from the grocery store.  It's a Fisker Karma.  It's a high zoot hybrid sports car.  About 50 of them have been sold in the US.  It's a nice looking car.  It's interesting, we could not see a tail pipe anywhere.  Apparently they've had some issues with battery fires.


Other than wilting in the GPNW, not too much is happening here.  Jim is recovering well from his fall.  We're postponing the ride up Mt. Rainier to Paradise until it cools off.  It's too dang hot!
