It was really hot and humid today. I had thought to go out painting in the morning but decided to stay in and see if it cooled off enough to head out in the early evening. Had some real rain and close lightning for a bit and gave up on the idea of painting so I got some dinner instead. Then it was about 20 degrees cooler so I headed over to the local conservation area and took a bunch of photos. Now I’ve got to get a poem together for mailing out tomorrow.

20 degrees cooler? How wonderful!
When I moved to Minnesota from Seattle, I had never known muggy weather. I heard the idea that a rainstorm would cool things off, but my experience was contrary to that. I don’t have to think about that anymore; we have more humidity than we used to, but not true mugginess.
It was good while it lasted. It was a pretty dense front that came through so torrential rain and close lightning. After that it got humid again but a little cooler
