Friday, July 19, 2013 - Work Day

After an uncomfortably hot evening, a cold front finally managed to head in this direction, creating a thunderstorm at about 3:30 in the morning, which presented a little relief (though it did keep us awake for awhile, and I did get up to open some windows for the nice cool breeze afterward.) It didn't turn cool right away, but throughout the day, the temps gradually moderated, only getting up the mid-80's which seemed like a huge difference compared to yesterday's upper 90's (the forecast called for 92, while the actual temp was 97, according to NOAA). We have a terrific cell-phone signal here, and since I've been behind on so much work, I spent the day getting caught up on a lot of things. After looking at the trail map, and seeing that we could ride practically every trail they have here in just a few hours, we decided to wait until tomorrow, when the weather is supposed to be REALLY nice, and knock them all out then. So I worked on the computer, and Hubby fixed the side market on the horse trailer (he had found a replacement at Blains) and a few other chores, before our settling down at our usual time to our usual routine.
